Personal Profile
I am a PhD candidate in History at the University of Cambridge, where I work on the history of political thought. My dissertation provides an alternative history of constitutional guardianship which challenges the centrality of constitutional courts to representative democracy. More broadly I am interested in British, American, French, and German political thought in the 18th and 19th centuries as well as the history of International Relations.
