Trajectory

Music, art, museums, and philosophy are not separate chapters for me. They are enduring ways of attending to form, meaning, and communication.

Music has long been one of the centres of my intellectual life. I trained as a classical guitarist and worked as a musician and teacher. The discipline of listening, interpretation, and performance continues to shape how I approach philosophical problems.

Art and museums form another continuous line. I studied art and visual history alongside philosophy at Humboldt-Universität and worked at the Mediathek of its Institut für Kunst- und Bildgeschichte. I am a member of ICOM Deutschland, and I understand museums not only as repositories but as places where objects, images, and forms of display make claims about the world.

My philosophical formation includes a BA in Philosophy from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and an MA in Philosophy from University College London. As a member of the Gesellschaft für Analytische Philosophie (GAP), I value the precision, argumentative discipline, and openness to revision that define the best work in analytic philosophy.

My doctoral research at Humboldt brings these commitments together. It combines a musician’s attention to form and interpretation, a sustained engagement with art and museums, and the rigour and clarity of analytic philosophy in order to investigate pictorial and multimodal communication.
