I am a PhD student at Cogito Epistemology Research Centre, University of Glasgow, where I am supervised by Christoph Kelp, Mona Simion and Lilith Mace.

‍ My PhD was supported by the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (grant agreement No 948356, KnowledgeLab: Knowledge-First Social Epistemology, PI: Mona Simion).

My thesis is on the epistemology of testimony and how the normativity of testimony relates to epistemic injustice and ignorance ascriptions.

Beyond research, I am a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the Department of Philosophy and at the School of Modern Languages and Cultures, where I teach italian conversation.

Last summer I worked as a tutor for Widening Participation at the University of Glasgow, a course designed to help prospective undergraduates from underrepresented socioeconomic groups with the transition to university life.

In summer 2026 I will work at the University of Glasgow International Summer School, where I will supervise international undergraduate students who want to pursue an independent research project at the intersection of the epistemology of testimony and LLM.
