I was born in 1980 in Athens, Greece. I read economics at Cambridge, where I also did some graduate work. I subsequently migrated to political philosophy, eventually completing a doctorate at Oxford.

My interest in philosophy is largely due to G. A. Cohen’s Karl Marx’s Theory of History: A Defence, which I discovered while an undergraduate. Since I was largely interested in the theory of distribution -which non-marxian economics barely touches upon- I abandoned economics and went up to Oxford to study with Cohen. I defended my thesis in June 2009.

Since September 2009 I have been working at the Chaire Hoover d’éthique économique et sociale, Université catholique de Louvain. As of October 2011 I am also a member of the Institute of Philosophy at KU Leuven, and a visiting professor at the Facultés Universitaires St-Louis in Brussels.
