(B.A., Philosophy and Politics (summa cum laude) - NYU, 2004; M.A. - NYU, 2005) Brian is a recent graduate interested mainly in moral and political philosophy. He is currently Assistant Professor of Legal Studies and Business Ethics in the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. Before moving to Penn, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the McCoy Center for Ethics in Society at Stanford University. His Berkeley dissertation addressed the extent to which prevailing injustice gives rise to moral demands on well-off people to make sacrifices in order to aid the badly-off.

Brian did his undergraduate work in Philosophy and Politics, as well as earning an Interdisciplinary Masters Degree, at New York University. He was a member of the NYU golf team during his four years there.
