Greetings and welcome to my homepage.
I am a philosopher working in ethics and moral philosophy. I am currently a habilitation candidate at the University of Konstanz, and I was previously an assistant professor at the Chair of Ethics and Moral Philosophy (Jacob Rosenthal).
My research addresses foundational questions about morality at the intersection of metaethics and normative ethics, with connections to philosophical anthropology and the history of moral philosophy. My current habilitation project develops an account of the subject matter of morality.
I also work on themes in (neo)pragmatism and inferentialism, and I am interested in how human social practices shape normativity and the meaning of moral language.
Here’s a link to my philpeople page.
