I am a program officer for the Li Ka-shing Foundation Program in Modern Chinese History at UC Berkeley.

​

Recently, I was a postdoctoral teaching fellow with the Stanford University COLLEGE program, a lecturer with the Center for East Asian Studies at Stanford University, and an adjunct instructor with the MA in Asia-Pacific Studies at University of San Francisco. I have also taught Chinese history at UC Berkeley and San Francisco State University.

 

In August 2019, I filed my dissertation, “Mutiny in Hunan: Writing and Rewriting the 'Warlord Era' in Early Republican Chinese History” with the History Department at the University of California, Berkeley.

​

I specialize in the political and military history of early 20th century China, and have additional teaching experience in East Asian history, world history, and film.
