I mainly work on political philosophy at the intersections of epistemology, religion, and feminist philosophy. I wrote my dissertation on the role of religious reasoning in liberal democracies, and argued in favour of the inclusion of such reasoning in ways that are compatible with a Rawlsian approach to political liberalism. More recently, I've been interested in how citizens can better know and understand one another. I thus aim to 'rekindle liberalism' by focusing on how liberal democracies in particular can preserve a kind of relational knowledge of persons, from the second-person perspective, and better than alternative forms of government. This challenges assumptions about the supposedly important role of propositional knowledge in democracies, and more generally calls into question what it means for citizens to be 'informed'. Instead of focusing on propositional knowledge, I ask what kinds of distinctly relational knowledge citizens might need of one another to be capable of relating to one another as equals. I also ask how citizens can have more of this knowledge-- namely, how citizens can know more citizens and know them as persons-- in a way that is compatible with their individual autonomy, and in a way that encourages civic friendship
