I am a PhD candidate in philosophy at the University of Vienna, working on the phenomenology of embodiment. My dissertation develops a phenomenological account of task-induced fatigue as a problem of bodily normativity: fatigue reveals how the body's claims on action — to slow, to switch, to rest — bind us, mislead us, and are contested by others. I work at the intersection of the phenomenological tradition (Merleau-Ponty, Hermann Schmitz's New Phenomenology), analytic philosophy of mind (bodily sensations, effort, predictive processing), and critical phenomenology.

I am a PhD candidate in philosophy at the University of Vienna, working on the phenomenology of embodiment. My dissertation develops a phenomenological account of task-induced fatigue as a problem of bodily normativity: fatigue reveals how the body's claims on action — to slow, to switch, to rest — bind us, mislead us, and are contested by others. I work at the intersection of the phenomenological tradition (Merleau-Ponty, Hermann Schmitz's New Phenomenology), analytic philosophy of mind (bodily sensations, effort, predictive processing), and critical phenomenology. The dissertation's chapters appear as articles in the Journal of the Philosophy of Sport (2026), Research in Phenomenology (forthcoming 2026), Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences (accepted), and Phänomenologische Forschungen (forthcoming 2027). My current research extends this program toward collective and political fatigue. I welcome correspondence and collaboration — please feel free to reach out. Supervisors: Sandra Lehmann and Hans Bernhard Schmid.
