Biography
I am a PhD student at the Erasmus Institute for Philosophy and Economice (EIPE), doing research at the intersection of philosophy of the social sciences and political philosophy. While located at Erasmus, I am also part of the project 'Quality' hosted by CRASSH at the University of Cambridge. My research is primarily about causal explanation of inequality, and the role that ethical background assumptions ought to play in such explanation. Another interest of mine is the philosophy of money.
