About

Outside of academic philosophy, the two most important things to me are my family (I am married to my high school sweetheart, Francesca, and have two children, James and Elena), and my faith (I am an Eastern Orthodox Christian). When I can find the time, I play the classical guitar, and lift heavy things.

Here’s a video (from a few years ago) of me playing a classic Brazilian tune, Sons de Carrilhoes.

I’ve competed occasionally in powerlifting. Here’s a video of my best competition lift, deadlifting 272.5 kg (600 lbs).
