I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Logic of Conceivability Project based at the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation of the University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and at the Arché Research Center at the University of St Andrews, UK.
I obtained my PhD in Philosophy in 2015 from the University of Groningen, where I worked under the supervision of Igor Douven.
My doctoral thesis is titled Between "If" and "Then:" Towards an Empirically Informed Philosphy of Conditionals. Before joining the LoC Project, I was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy and Center for Advanced Studies of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, and I remain an external member of the Center.
My research interests include semantics and pragmatics of conditionals, their role in reasoning and decision making, various issues related to semantics-pragmatics interface, and philosophy of psychology of reasoning.
