Biography
My dissertation studies the use of language in the cultural production of Amdo Tibet in the 2000s. I pay particular attention to the diverse ways in which language, ethnicity, and politics intersect and are in conversation with cultural production during this period. I am also attentive to the individuals and organizations involved in the creation of said products and the roles that they play with regard to linguistic regulation and standardization.
More broadly, I am interested in translation studies, multilingualism, critical race theory, and media studies.
