BA in History (Universitat de Girona, 2014), BA in Philosophy (University of Girona, 2017; Extraordinary Prize), and MA in Analytic Philosophy (Universitat de Barcelona, 2018). I am currently working on my PhD thesis in Universitat de Girona, under the supervision of Josep Lluís Prades. My research project has been funded by a FI grant.

My main area of interest is action theory, and consequently my thesis concerns phenomena such as intention and action. More specifically, my idea is that it is aimed at understanding the epistemic authority of the first person about their intentional actions. Apart from this, I am also remarkably interested in philosophy of mind, philosophy of language and the philosophy of the later Wittgenstein, and even more so when these subjects intersect.
