His work in epistemology focuses on epistemic luck, the internalism/externalism debate, the lottery paradox, the regress problem, and the role of reason and coherence in justification. His work in ethics focuses on moral epistemology and on applied ethics (especially animal ethics, environmental ethics, and the philosophy of food). Representative publications in epistemology include: "Personal and Doxastic Justification in Epistemology," Philosophical Studies; "Is Epistemic Luck Compatible with Knowledge?" Southern Journal of Philosophy; "Positism: The Unexplored Solution to the Epistemic Regress Problem," Metaphilosophy; "Epistemic Luck," Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy; "What's Wrong with Contextualism," Erkenntnis; "Lotteries, Knowledge, and Inconsistent Belief," Synthese; and "Coherentism and the Epistemic Justification of Moral Beliefs," Southern Journal of Philosophy; "Internalism and Externalism in Epistemology," Oxford Bibliographies; "Epistemology and the Ethics of Animal Experimentation," in Applied Epistemology, ed.
