Research:

My research lies primarily in moral and political philosophy, with a broad interest in value theory and a developing interest in political epistemology. 

I’m particularly interested in theories of justice, egalitarianism, migration ethics, ethics of resistance, legitimacy, the role of consent in both political and interpersonal contexts. 

I’m currently developing a novel notion of injustice based on relational egalitarianism, with a particular focus on immigration.

Bio:

When I’m not doing philosophy from my armchair, I spend most of my time on my road bike, with an analogue camera tucked into my jersey pocket.
