I am an independent scholar working across philosophy, classics, and theology. My work examines how early texts are transmitted, interpreted, and reimagined over time, with a focus on the translation and exegesis of Ancient Greek sources such as Plato and Sappho. I am particularly interested in the reception of foundational philosophical traditions and in the intersections of classical philosophy and Christian intellectual history, especially Aristotle and Aquinas.

“καὶ ζωὴ δέ γε ὑπάρχει: ἡ γὰρ νοῦ ἐνέργεια ζωή, ἐκεῖνος δὲ ἡ ἐνέργεια: ἐνέργεια δὲ ἡ καθ᾽ αὑτὴν ἐκείνου ζωὴ ἀρίστη καὶ ἀΐδιος.”
(Metaphysics, Λ7, 1072b).
“And life belongs (to God): for the activity of the mind is life, and that one (God) is activity: and the activity-in-itself of that one (God) is the best life and eternal.”
(Own translation).
