From 2015 to 2018 I held a Joseph-Armand Bombardier Canada Graduate Scholarship, and from September 2017 to March 2018 I was a Visiting Scholar at the University of Pittsburgh Department of Philosophy, working with Robert Brandom.
I also have interests in epistemology & metaphysics, philosophy of science, early modern philosophy, the history of analytic philosophy, 19th & early 20th century European philosophy, and political philosophy.
