Assistant Professor of Asian Societies, Cultures, and Languages

I am a scholar of architecture and urbanism whose research is anchored in a historical inquiry into race, migration, and the built environment. I am currently completing my first book manuscript that situates "Chinatown" as an imaginative and material space within the global history of empire, labor migration, and violence. My research interests include colonial architecture and urbanism, empire studies, migration and diaspora, race and racism, Asian/American architecture, infrastructures, and archives.
