I am an Early Career Research Fellow in Philosophy at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. My main research interest is in ancient philosophy of physics and mathematics. In particular, I am interested in the relation between physical and geometrical modality, and how geometry applies to the physical world.
Before starting this job I worked as Departmental Lecturer in Ancient Philosophy at the University of Oxford, in association with Somerville College. Previously I did a DPhil (that is, PhD) in Philosophy at the University of Oxford, where I worked under the supervision of Prof Ursula Coope and Dr Michail Peramatzis on a thesis titled 'Fiction and Reality in Aristotle's Philosophy of Geometry'. The thesis investigates the relation between Aristotle's philosophy of geometry and his physics. It was examined by Prof Jonathan Beere (HU Berlin) and Dr Paolo Fait (New College, Oxford), and won the 2024 Oxford Conington Prize for the best doctoral thesis in the field of Ancient Philosophy and Ideas.
