(they/them/"tā")


I am a media studies scholar of gender, race, and transnationalism. My research centers on queer and trans culture, activism, and digital media in China and the Asian diaspora.

Currently, I am a dual-title PhD Candidate in Mass Communications & Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Penn State. Starting from Fall 2025, I will join the Department of Communication & Film at the University of Memphis as an Assistant Professor of Media Studies.
