In Philosophy
I have a broad range of philosophical interests -- from ethics, to epistemology and metaphysics, to philosophy of mathematics -- and much of the work that I focus on lie at the intersection of several sub-disciplines within philosophy. Some of these areas include:
I wrote two different professional papers as part of my MA programme at Simon Fraser University -- one on the ethics of strategic voting which I subsequently presented on the panel "Inclusive Democracies: New Challenges in the Ethics of Voting and Democratic Participation" at the MANCEPT Workshops in 2021 (abstract here), and the other on supererogation which subsequently became the writing sample for my PhD application (abstract here).
I also wrote a dissertation on the nature of the absolute infinity as part of my MA programme at the University of Bristol. An abstract of one of the chapters can be found (here).

In Mathematics
I was trained as a model theorist and wrote my doctoral thesis under the supervision of Jochen Koenigsmann. Ehud Hrushovski and Angus Macintyre served as my examiners. My mathematical interests are heavily influenced by all of them. Some of the areas that I work on include:
In my doctoral thesis, I resolved an open problem in mathematical logic about whether there are decidable fields which admit undecidable finite extensions. A copy of my thesis can be found (here). A paper outlining the results of my thesis is in preparation, and can be made available upon request.
