I am a Ph.D. student at the Centre for Philosophy of Memory of the Université Grenoble Alpes (France) and the Institute of Philosophy II of the Ruhr Universität Bochum (Germany). I work under the co-supervision of Kourken Michaelian and Markus Werning.
My research interests focus on the philosophy of mind in general and the philosophy of memory in particular. In my doctoral dissertation, I address questions about the nature of memory and remembering, while paying specific attention to the ways in which environmental resources shape mnemic processes.
My Ph.D. is funded by a doctoral contract from the French Philosophy Doctoral School 487 "Histoire, Représentation, Création".
Previously, I completed an M.A. in philosophy of mind at the Université Grenoble Alpes and a B.A. in philosophy at the Universidad de Antioquia (Colombia).
