About
I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Philosophy of the School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon and a Full Member of the LanCog research group of the Centre of Philosophy of the University of Lisbon.
In addition, I am an External Member of the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP) of LMU and an editor for Inquiry: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy.
My research is mainly in the areas of metaphysics, logic, philosophy of mathematics, philosophy of language, and epistemology. I am the Principal Investigator of the FCT SR&DT Project Upper Logicism (2026-2028).
Besides logicism, I have been working on the topics of vagueness, metaphysics of modality, and epistemic normativity. In the past I have also worked on the semantics of 'knowing wh-' constructions, proof theoretic stability, hylomorphic mereology, theoretical equivalence in metaphysics and the normativity of logic.
Up until recently, I was an FCT Junior Researcher at the Department of History and Philosophy of Sciences - in the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon -, a member of the Young Scientists' Seminar of the Lisbon Academy of Sciences, and the coPI of the FCT Exploratory Project Philosophical Investigation of Applications of Science in Mathematics (PI: Daniele Molinini).
Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the MCMP, and before that I held an Assistant Lectureship in the Philosophy Department of the University of St Andrews.
I did my PhD in Philosophy at the Arche Research Centre, University of St Andrews. I was very fortunate to be supervised by Stephen Read and Gabriel Uzquiano and to have Bob Stalnaker and Aaron Cotnoir as my examiners. During my PhD I was also a visiting scholar at MIT's Department of Linguistics and Philosophy and at the University of Oslo. Before going to St Andrews I did an MSc in Logic at the ILLC, University of Amsterdam.
