Hi!
I am an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Warsaw and a postdoctoral fellow in the project Epistemic and Semantic Commitments of Foundational Theories (PI: Cezary Cieśliński). Before starting in Warsaw, I obtained my PhD in Philosophy from the University of Bristol under the supervision of Catrin Campbell-Moore and Johannes Stern. My project was funded by the South, West and Wales Doctoral Training Partnership (Arts and Humanities Research Council). Here, you can find my ResearchGate and PhilPeople profiles.
Entitlement in the Foundations of Mathematics:
My doctoral dissertation investigates the nature of our justification for accepting some of the cornerstones of our philosophical and mathematical theorising. These statements express crucial meta-theoretic properties of theories, such as consistency, truth, and determinacy. One of my claims is that there is a non-evidential type of justification, an entitlement, to accept cornerstones. Read my dissertation here!
