I received my PhD in philosophy at the University of Leuven. Prior to joining King's in 2023, I held post-doctoral fellowships at the University of Leuven, Purdue University, and the "Human Abilities" Centre in Berlin.

Research interests and PhD supervision

• Medieval Philosophy
• Philosophy of Action
• Metaphysics

My research focuses on Latin medieval theories of human agency and (efficient) causation. Currently, I am working on a book on theories of the soul and its powers from Albert the Great to William of Ockham. I am also interested in early modern philosophy, in particular in early modern scholastic authors like Francisco Suárez.

Teaching
