I am a philosopher, located at the University of St. Gallen. Prior to coming to Switzerland, I had studied Law, Music Performance, Political Theory and Philosophy in Greece and in Germany. Moving between these different fields as well as beyond academic and artistic practices, institutions, contexts, and borders, has shaped my thinking in lasting ways.
My research is grounded in Continental philosophy and the tradition of critical theory. Systematically, I draw insights from social and political philosophy, practical philosophy, political theory, and aesthetics. Historically, I engage with theoretical resources ranging from Early Modern thought, the Scottish Enlightenment, and German Idealism to the Frankfurt School, post-war French philosophy, intersectionality, queer theory, and decolonial approaches. These traditions do not form a lineage so much as a constellation: shifting, tense, and unfinished.
In times marked by fragmentation, exclusion, and increasingly exhausted visions of the future, what drives my work is the fragile promise of togetherness that is neither given nor guaranteed, but always at stake. Philosophy matters where it helps us name this stake and where it teaches us how to listen more carefully to plurality and the difference living within it. In this light, Hannah Arendt’s notion of "acting in concert" is more than just a theoretical reference; it is a biographical echo and at the same time an imperative guiding my work.
