I am a philosopher working on issues of philosophy of language, metaphysics and philosophical semantics.
​
I am very interested in classical problems of philosophy of language such as reference and meaning, but my current research interests are centered on the structure and representational character of propositions.
​
My PhD research is funded by the FPI Program of the University of Basque Country (UPV/EHU)
