About

My research investigates the philosophical interplay of information and communication. In particular, I am working on a formal, empirically motivated account of how word meaning, communicative context, and agents’ information interact in the determination of mental attitude content (esp. memory and imagination content).

Research areas:

Philosophy of language | Philosophy of information
Formal semantics & pragmatics | Logic
Ontology

Topics:

Experiential attitudes
Information-sensitivity | Situated interpretation
Non-propositional information content
Natural language ontology
