Biography
I am an interdisciplinary scholar but trained as a sociologist interested in inequality, immigration, race, and representation. My course Asian American Experience provides students with projects related to Asian American sporting cultures, including analyzing celebrity coverage of Linsanity, Mantei Te'o, and Manny Pacquiao. We will broadly cover Asian American sports historically and problematize stereotypes like the model minority myth, orientalism, and gendered stereotypes connected with rising anti-Asian hate.
