About me

I am a philosopher working at the intersection of ethics and epistemology. I completed my PhD in philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology under the supervision of Roger White in August 2025. I am currently lecturing at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières . I also am an affiliated researcher at the Groupe de recherche interuniversitaire sur la normativité (GRIN) .

My research, for which I received funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) , centers on epistemic normativity and value. I am particularly interested in whether and, if so, how epistemic normativity can be grounded in moral and social facts. You can read more about it on the Research page. I also have significant interests in aesthetics and the philosophy of art.

I previously completed a B.A. in philosophy, a certificate in Classics, and an M.A. in philosophy at the Université de Montréal , where my research was funded by SSHRC, the Fonds de recherche du Québec – Société et culture (FRQSC) , as well as the Groupe de recherche interuniversitaire sur la normativité (GRIN) .

Before philosophy, I studied classical double bass at the Conservatoire de Musique de Québec . I still devote most of my free time to playing, listening to, and reading about music.
