I am a philosopher and author working at the intersection of philosophy and cognitive science, with a focus on mind, consciousness and mental disorders. I teach at Deree – The American College of Greece and have previously held academic positions at CUNY’s City College of New York and the Hellenic Naval Staff and Command College.

I serve as associate editor of Philosophical Psychology and co-direct the Demographics in Philosophy Project, which addresses the underrepresentation of women in philosophy and promotes diversity in the field and the  Mind at Large Project, a three-year conference series exploring consciousness and its role in reality.

My main research is in the philosophy of mind and psychiatry but also includes epistemology, metaphilosophy, applied ethics (animal ethics and bioethics). I also write for broader audiences in order to make philosophical and scientific ideas accessible and relevant to the public.

I have a passion for music and chocolate and I once spent several years on a quest for the perfect burger – but all this is another story.

You can find my research on Academia.edu and ResearchGate, and follow my thoughts on philosophy and other curiosities on Bluesky.
