PhD student in Theoretical Philosophy

Philosophy of Physics and Phenomenology

I started my PhD in January 2025 with my research focusing on the Philosophy of Physics and Phenomenology.

I am interested in how ideas from phenomenology can be used to inform interpretations of physical theories, in particular the QBist interpretation of quantum mechanics.

My interests also include broader issues in philosophy of science such as scientific realism and scientific representation, as well as the metaphysical implications of scientific theories.
