I am a Research Fellow at the Center for International Studies (Inha University) with expertise in International Relations Theory, religion & politics, and interpretive approaches to political science.

I study narratives and rhetoric of South Korean evangelicals through a trans-Pacific lens. My research is published in peer-reviewed academic journals such as The Political Quarterly, Society, Journal of Homosexuality, Australian Journal of Asian Law, and International Journal of Korean History.

I received a M.A. and Ph.D. degree in Political Science from the University of California Irvine as a US Fulbright graduate student.
