I am happy to say that I have joined the faculty of the University of Notre Dame as the newest assistant professor in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures. Between preparations for my new job and the release of my book (available now through University of Hawai’i Press, or through Amazon in three days), this summer has been crazy busy! The semester hasn’t even started, and Notre Dame has a ton of things going on. It’s a really exciting place to be. Here’s hoping I can help keep the energy levels up!

It’s been a few years, and a lot has happened. This site is ready for – and getting – an expansion… but it’s also the beginning of the new school year, so this is going to have to happen in pieces. Please pardon the mess. I hope to have everything done soon.
