I work mainly on issues at the intersection of metaphysics and language, especially those surrounding logical paradoxes—or, more generally, those whose treatment seems to benefit from the use of tools native to so-called philosophical logic. Of course, it's hard to do philosophy of language without doing some philosophy of mental representation too. On the other hand, I seem to be managing with metaphysics sans epistemology!
