I am a philosopher based in Zurich and Berlin. From September 2018 until August 2019, I am working as a senior lecturer in theoretical philosophy at the University of Zurich. After my stay in Zurich, I will return to the Humboldt University of Berlin as a lecturer in philosophy.
My main research areas are the philosophy of language, metaphysics and the ethics of communication. I am currently working on theoretical and ethical aspects of lying and misleading, on issues in metasemantics, semantics and pragmatics and on the philosophy of time. I also have an interest in the history of analytic philosophy, and in particular in Frege's philosophy of language.
I received my DPhil from the University of Oxford in 2015. Previously, I completed the BPhil in Philosophy at Oxford and a BA in Philosophy and German Literature at the Humboldt University of Berlin. From October 2017 until March 2018, I was an Academic Visitor at the University of Cambridge and a By-Fellow at Churchill College, funded by a fellowship of the DAAD.
In 2016, I initiated the research network The semantics and metasemantics of context-sensitive language, which is funded by the DFG and of which I am a coordinator. Together with Julia Zakkou and Alexander Dinges, I run the SPB group, a Berlin-based reading group on topics in the philosophy of language.
Here I am baking a cake with my two sons.
