I am currently pursuing my master's degree at the Yenching Academy of Peking University (Beijing, China) in Politics & International Relations [China Studies]. I earned my bachelor's degree in Global China Studies from NYU Shanghai (Shanghai, China). My Mandarin skills are at a working proficiency level. My academic and research interests lie mainly in China's strategic relations with South Asia, Chinese nuclear history, and U.S.-Sino relations.
