Biography
Before arriving at Durham University, I was an assistant professor in the Department of Philosophy at Dalhousie University (Halifax, Canada), where I also taught in the Faculty of Computer Science. Previously, I held postdoctoral fellowships (2020-21) at Mila - Québec Artificial Intelligence Institute and the Department of Computer Science and Operations Research (Université de Montréal), as well as the SRI (University of Toronto).
I received my PhD (2020) from the department of Logic and Philosophy of Science at the University of California, Irvine, where I was supervised by Jeffrey A. Barrett. I previously received an MA (2018) in Social Science from the Institute for Mathematical Behavioral Sciences at UC Irvine, as well as an MA (2016) in Philosophy from Simon Fraser University and a BA (2014) in Philosophy (Hons.) and English Literature from the University of British Columbia.
My Erdös number is 4, along the following path:
Jeffrey A. Barrett → Brian Skyrms → Persi Diaconis → Paul Erdös
