I graduated with a PhD in Philosophy from Cornell University's Sage School of Philosophy in 2025. I also hold a Bachelor of Arts in Classics from Columbia University and Master's degrees in Ancient Philosophy from both the University of Oxford and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. My area of specialization lies in ancient and medieval philosophy; in particular, my research centers on ancient and medieval metaphysics, epistemology, and philosophical theology. My dissertation explored the epistemology of the seven liberal arts in the early works of Augustine. Aside from Augustine, I also have significant research interests in Porphyry's logic and ontology. In my free time, I like to cook, play video games, and read 19th century literature.
