I’m a philosopher with core research interests in Early Modern Rationalism, Kant, and German Idealism. Where possible, I connect my historical research with contemporary discussions in metaphysics and epistemology.
Currently, I’m a Visiting Researcher at HU Berlin, supported by a grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation. Before, I was a Visiting Fellow at Princeton University.
My main project concerns Kant’s metaphysics of existence and modality. I develop a ‘Meinongian’ reading of Kant, according to which his theory of modality crucially relies on an ontology of non-existent objects.
From June 5-7, I’ll speak at the “Agency and Potentiality” conference at the University of Basel.
I’m a proud member of the editorial committee of Dialectica.
