My research focuses on the experience of dual religious belonging, particularly the claim to be simultaneously Buddhist and Christian. My dissertatiion examining this experience through lens of Gillian Rose's speculative philosophy is entitled: Gillian Rose and the Question of Dual Religious Belonging: On the Difficulty of Being a Buddhist and a Christisan. See also my article Aporetic Belonging: Thinking the Experience of Budhhist-Christian Practice with Gillian Rose in the journal Buddhist-Christian Studies, University of Hawaii Press, (Vol 44,2024) pp. 203-21
