Biography
received my BA in Arabic from Beijing Foreign Studies University, MA from Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service, and PhD in East Asian history from George Washington University. As a history teacher, I seek to train my students to critically assess information, reason carefully, and make coherent arguments supported by historical evidence.
Research Interest
My research interests include modern Chinese history, race and ethnicity, and transnational history. I have published a number of book chapters, journal articles, and book reviews in these fields. I am currently working on a book manuscript on the history of Muslims in China.
