I'm an assistant professor at Julia Zakkou's chair in epistemology and philosophy of language at the Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf.
My research focuses on the relation between knowledge and belief and whether either of them enjoys "priority" over the other. I also work on the semantics of knowledge and belief talk as well as the early 20th century philosophical movement known as Oxford Realism. I completed my PhD at the University of Warwick in January 2020 and was an assistant professor at TU Dortmund from April 2020 to March 2024. Thanks to funding from the Rudolf Chaudoire foundation, I spent February and March 2024 at Oxford and Cornell researching the history of Oxford Realism. I'm originally from Austria, but lived in the UK for most of my adult life. In my free time, I enjoy learning about history, cooking and trying new foods, as well as walking and cycling with my wife and fellow philosopher Giulia Martina. Email - PhilPeople Publications
