I am an Instructional Assistant Professor at the Bush School of Government and Public Service in Washington, DC, where I teach graduate-level courses in international political economy and East Asian security. 

In Fall 2025, I will be joining the University of Texas at Dallas as a tenure-track Assistant Professor.

My research primarily centers on mechanisms governing international business interactions and strategies to manage political risk. Beyond this, I also delve into the geoeconomics of East Asia, examining how firms and institutions respond to and influence security challenges in the region.

I hold a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Rochester (2022), an M.A. in Political Science and an M.S. in Economics from Purdue University (2017), and a B.A. in Political Science from Konkuk University in Seoul, South Korea (2012).
