His research explores habit as a philosophical concept across thinkers from Descartes to Dewey, while his current book project on William James investigates the intersection of metaphysics and pragmatism. Publications include collaborations on monadologies and analyses of French spiritualism.

Recent articles examine Leibniz's influence in France, Bergson-James parallels, and Condillac's animal cognition theories. These works span metaphysics, phenomenology, and philosophical psychology, with a focus on habit, idealism, and pragmatism.
