My work in the project will concern the interplay between cognitive, sensory and motor processes in the experience of bodily action. More generally, the focus of my work is on how the body structures our experience of the world and ourselves.

I am also working on a book for Routledge, titled Bodily Self-Consciousness, and editing The Routledge Handbook of Bodily Awareness, with my collaborator Matt Longo.

My most recent article (forthcoming in Synthese) argues that the integrated structure of bodily experience and bodily action do not require representation of the body as an integrated whole.

You can find my CV here and some things I have written here.

I got my PhD from the Universitat de Barcelona in 2019. Before joining ReConAg, I held postdoctoral positions at the Institut Jean Nicod in Paris and the Center for Philosophical Psychology in Antwerp.

My main philosophical interests lie in bodily awareness and self-awareness, and in the ways in which they interact with phenomenal consciousness in general. The guiding principle of my research is that bodily experiences are genuinely first-personal states, both because of the peculiarities of bodily representations in them, and because of how subjectivity is involved in all forms of phenomenal consciousness in normal conditions. Besides, I am currently very interested in exploring the affectivity of dysmenorrhea as a debilitating condition. I will contribute to the project by thinking of how the peculiarities of our bodily experiences inform our experience of agency.
