I use philosophy to explore entrepreneurship
My research explores the intersection of entrepreneurship, business ethics, and philosophy. I examine how entrepreneurs imagine and enact futures under conditions of uncertainty, with particular attention to normative agency and reflexivity. More broadly, I am interested in how normative questions arise in business, especially how value creation integrates social, environmental, and economic dimensions.
