I am a Ph.D.
(graduation date: May 23, 2008) in the CPaS (Committee
for Philosophy and the Sciences )
program, in the Department of
Philosophy at the University
of Maryland , in which I enrolled
for graduate studies
in September, 2003. My area of specialization are in the philosophy of science, as well as in
the philosophy of physics.
My other areas of specialization include mathematical physics, and mathematics. My area of
competence is in the philosophy of
language. In the philosophy of science, my reserach
interests include inter-theoretic
reduction, scientific
explanation, and ontology.
In the philosophy of physics, my
research focuses on
the application of Clifford
Algebra, with respect to the
characterization of theories in certain branches of physics, both
fundamental and applied. To the physicist and engineer, the
appeal of Clifford algebras primarily stems from the means by which
one may unify the geometric content of a theory's mathematical
formalism. To the philosopher of physics, such instances of
Clifford-algebraic geometric unification prove a compelling area of
study, in cases in which a theory's ontological content becomes
relatively more unified and simplified as well. For more
information, see the enclosed Abstract,
Foreword, and Table of Contents of my dissertation (© April
18, 2008), in the Other Recent Papers
(unpublished, works in
progress) section below, as well as cDecember
6, 2006 presentation and my December 7, 2007 and
Februay 26, 2007 presentations listed below in the section: Recent Papers and Talks (published
