I am a maître assistant at the philosophy department of the University of Geneva, teaching courses and seminars on logic, metaphysics, and early modern philosophy. I am a member of the Genevan research group in metaphysics eidos. My research currently focuses on metaphysics (theories of resemblance and similarity, metaphysics of properties, in particular Nominalism, metaphysics of modality, Monism, and explanation, in particular Principles of Sufficient Reason), philosophy of religion (cosmological arguments and methodological issues in the theism/atheism debate), and early modern philosophy (Spinoza, Principles of Sufficient Reason, mereology and theories of properties in early modern rationalism). I completed a PhD at the University of Geneva under the supervision of Kevin Mulligan (Geneva) and Gonzalo Rodriguez-Pereyra (Oriel College, Oxford) in 2009.
