I am interested in understanding the value of animal culture, autonomy, and dignity, and the questions of how to study them.My background includes a BA in Theoretical Philosophy from the University of Helsinki, and an MSc from Hólar University. Since starting my PhD at LSE, I was a Visiting Research Trainee at York University, Toronto.Please correspond with me
