Why Contact Me?
Please feel free to contact me. I'm more than happy to discuss philosophical and wellbeing-related matters with anyone.

Of particular interest to me is making contact with other wellbeing researchers. Especially for the following reasons:

 - If you are interested in being a peer reviewer for or potential contributor to the International Journal of Wellbeing

 - If you are an editor of a philosophy or wellbeing-related project looking for a contributor

 - If you are interested in collaborating on theoretical, interdisciplinary, or empirical wellbeing research

 - If you are a non-philosopher and want to discuss philosophical aspects of wellbeing
