Research Interest

I graduated from University of Connecticut in 2025 with a Bachelor of Arts in History.  I majored on the history of political thought in my final year. My undergraduate dissertation, The Failure of German Liberalism in the Nineteenth Century: The Perspective of Political Languages, focused on illiberal element inside of German political narratives in 19th century, and analyzed how this illiberal narratives divided the force of German liberalism. This dissertation discussed the idea of political narratives based on influential German philosophy thinkers’ ideas and political participants’ thought.

My current research interest focus on the history of political thought in liberal and illiberal genealogy. I aim to explore a more comprehensive analysis to interpret how political ideas and political reality interact with each other.
