My current research revolves around three interrelated axes:
1. I defend the possibility of carrying out conceptual ameliorative analyses within the framework of feminist phenomenology. I am particularly interested in working on concrete examples, such as the notion of consent. I am currently developing a research project that proposes reconceptualizing consent as “affective approval,” a sui generis kind of emotion. The project has been submitted for external funding.
2. I engage with contemporary debates on the normativity and ethics of emotions (such as when emotions are justified), with a special focus on phenomenological and feminist perspectives on these topics.
3. I aim to develop a novel interpretation of Husserl’s ethics, which underlines its sentimentalist and consequentialist dimensions.

- I am also working on a book manuscript that expands upon my Ph.D. dissertation on Husserl's notion of essence and criticisms of it.
