About Me
- The Film Philosopher
- Los Angeles, California
- I am a professional philosopher with a B.A. in film, an M.A. in theology, and a Ph.D. in philosophy. I've taught philosophy of film, aesthetics, ethics, philosophy of religion, and history of philosophy at U.C. Riverside, University of Redlands, Biola University, and Azusa Pacific University. You can read some of my philosophical and theological work on my website at www.filmphilosopher.com.
