I’m a researcher in philosophy of religion, Christian theology, and Buddhist studies. My current position is postdoctoral research fellow at Harvard Divinity School. I am a practicing Catholic and I like to think of my work as a critical yet faithful engagement with the Catholic tradition.

My favorite thinkers are, apart from Plato and Aristotle (whom I consider to be a Platonist and idealist), Plotinus, Hegel, Paul Tillich, Nāgārjuna, Vasubandhu, Christian Ferdinand Baur, Evagrius Ponticus, and Rudolf Bultmann. I also enjoy reading Homer and Pindar. My favorite book of all times if probably Thomas a Kempis’s Imitatio Christi.

Apart from books, I dig hardcore music and metal, especially Boston hardcore, powerviolence, traditional heavy metal and NWoBHM. My all-time favorite bands are Motörhead, SSD, Tygers of Pan Tang, and Siege. But I also enojy death metal a lot, for example Autopsy, Repulsion, and early Sepultura.
