I’m a philosopher with core research interests in the metaphysics and epistemology of Descartes, Baumgarten, and Kant.
Currently, I’m a Postdoc working on Kant’s Transcendental Dialectic in the project “Reasonable Ideas” at Humboldt University Berlin. Before, I was a Postdoc at the University of Zurich and a Visiting Fellow at Princeton University and Humboldt University Berlin. You can download my CV here.
Two of my papers have recently appeared: “Dreams and Paintings. Descartes, Dream Skepticism, and the Constitution of Mental States” in Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, and “Possibility, Actuality, and Determinacy. Baumgarten’s Metaphysics of Contingent Existents” in History of Philosophy Quarterly. You can find my other publications here.
On November 21, I’ll present my reading of Kant’s refutation of the ontological argument at the 2026 meeting of the Eastern Study Group of NAKS hosted by Nick Stang at the University of Toronto.
On November 26, I’ll give a talk about Kant’s notion of existence at the History of Philosophy Seminar at King’s College London.
On December 4-5, I’ll speak at the conference “Demarcation of the Knowable and Unknowable” at the University of Heidelberg.
