Hi! I’m an incoming Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Colorado College. I examine how today’s emerging promises of progressive technological innovation are reconfiguring ideas of health, the environment, and ethnic and Indigenous inequality globally.

My fieldwork takes place across Taiwan, China, and the U.S., and I research and teach across medical anthropology, environmental anthropology, critical technology and design studies, social and political theory, global Indigenous studies, and public and engaged ethnography.

I am an award-winning teacher and scholar, having received a Teaching Award and five paper prizes from different scholarly associations (Winner, Rudolf Wirchow Award for the Critical Anthropology of Global Health and Association for Asian Studies; Honorable Mentions, Association of Political and Legal Anthropology; David Hakken Award from the Committee for the Anthropology of Science, Technology & Computing; Nancy Abelmann Prize from the Society for East Asian Anthropology). My research is supported by funders including the Wenner-Gren Foundation, the Fulbright-Hays Program, the Princeton-Mellon Initiative, the Association for Asian Studies/Chiang Ching-Kuo Foundation, and the American Ethnological Society.

I received my BA in Anthropology from Columbia University, and my MA and PhD in Anthropology from Princeton University.
