I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM). My research focuses on agency and social cognition, with an emphasis on developmental issues.
I received my PhD in Philosophy and my Cognitive Science Certificate from the University of Memphis (USA) in May 2016. My dissertation was entitled “Developmental Phenomenology: Epistemic Grounding, Infant Imitation, and Pairing,” and my dissertation committee was composed of Shaun Gallagher (Chair), Tom Nenon (Co-chair), Deborah Tollefsen, John Tienson, and Dan Zahavi.
Thanks to the support of the Humboldt Foundation Anneliese Maier Research Award, I was a visiting researcher at the University of Bochum (Germany) from May 2013-July 2013 and from June 2015-July 2015. In 2015 I was also a visiting researcher for several months at the Husserl-Archives in Cologne (Germany) and at the Center for Subjectivity Research in Copenhagen (Denmark). I earned my BA (2008) and MA (2011) in Philosophy from the University of Milan (Italy).
