"My interests lie at the intersection of modern Chinese legal, cultural, and intellectual history, particularly with regard to the development of capitalism in the Sinophone world. At Georgetown, I hope to continue to develop the language and research skills that would allow me to further explore these interests. I chose MASIA because of the career flexibility the program offers, as well as the program’s curricular emphasis on the practical implications of academic research."
