I'm a political theorist working on the history of modern democracy and its shifting relation to liberalism. I'm interested in what overlooked historical trajectories can tell us about current discussions in political philosophy.

 

My research interests include past and present debates about popular power, sovereignty, and public opinion, as well as the role of tradition-building in the history of political thought.

I'm currently completing my first book manuscript, The People's Two Powers, as well as a research project on constructed liberal traditions. I've also started doing research for a second book project, Propaganda and Democracy: A History.

In September 2022, I joined King's College London as a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow. Previously, I taught at Brown and Yale, and earned a PhD in politics at the University of Cambridge. My work has appeared, amongst others, in The Journal of Politics, Political Studies, and Modern Intellectual History.
