I work on organizational ethics, political philosophy, applied epistemology, and the ethics of technology.
I am the principal investigator of a research group at the University of Hamburg investigating culpable ignorance in organizations – what organizations have a duty to know, and which qualities help them to fulfill these duties.
Much of my work to date has been at the intersection of philosophy and economics, such as the ethics of debt, just housing, and the impact of AI on work. I have also made contributions to the ethics of finance, business ethics, and applied epistemology.
My papers have appeared in journals including the Journal of Political Philosophy; Politics, Philosophy and Economics; Synthese; and the Journal of Business Ethics. I have a forthcoming book on the Right to Credit, with Daniel Halliday, published by Cambridge University Press.
I hold a Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Cambridge, and a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Groningen. I received a Master’s degree in philosophy from Oxford University, a BA degree in Philosophy & Economics from Bayreuth University, and a BA in European History from Bayreuth University.
