My interest in the Phenomenology and the Philosophy of Cognitive Psychology is motivated by three specific topics: consciousness, perception, and developmental psychology. With regards to the first, I am interested in exploring what are generally considered to be representation-heavy capacities and how their conditions may depend more so on non-representational processes. Moreover, this goal has led me to investigate the nature of intersubjectivity and go beyond Theory of Mind explanations.  Finally, my research in developmental psychology is presently focused on analyzing nonverbal false beliefs tasks from an embodied framework. Finally, my thesis project is, following James J. Gibson's ecological approach, aims to explore to what extent gustatory perception may be a multisensory orienting system.

"The boundary-line of the mental is certainly vague. It is better not to be pedantic, but to let the science be as vague as its subject."
