Welcome!

I am a postdoctoral fellow at the philosophy department of KU Leuven, member of the Centre for Logic and Philosophy of Science and the Husserl Archives. I have completed my PhD in philosophy at King’s College London in 2022, and before that obtained degrees in philosophy and physics from LMU Munich.

My philosophical interests revolve around the relation between scientific theories and pre-scientific relations to the world. More specifically, I work on phenomenological philosophy and its relation to questions from general philosophy of science, such as the scientific realism debate and theories of scientific representation. That crosses often over into questions from metaphysics and philosophy of language.

I move between philosophical traditions and I am also interested in studying their relation by empirical means. To this end I am working on computational methods for the history of philosophy (of science). My contribution to Sander Verhaegh’s ERC project Exiled Empiricists, which led to an interactive web-application. I previously worked as a data scientist and contributed to empirical research on the UK Research Evaluation Framework (with Moqi Groen-Xu, Research Policy ).

Besides my academic profile, this website also has a small section for tools that describes tools which found useful for philosophy research.
