I am a Lecturer in the History of Philosophy at King's College London, working primarily on Medieval Philosophy in the Latin tradition.
Before coming to the UK, I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the De Wulf-Mansion Centre for Ancient, Medieval and Renaissance Philosophy at KU Leuven, Belgium, working on the project "Hylomorphism Whole: 1300–1330". Before that... well, it's a long story (read the academic CV if interested). Apart from thinking about matter, potency, and causation, I also have some "downtime projects", such as review editing for Speculum or being part of various translation teams.
I spent the first quarter century of my life in Budapest, Hungary, where I attended ELTE University in philosophy and mathematics, and then got an MA in medieval studies at CEU Budapest.
In my free time I enjoy singing with Orlando, or practising some consort music on the viol.
On this website, you can find various bits about my research, some teaching materials, and some events I have been organising, including the Virtual Paleography and Latin reading groups.
