About

Welcome to my website! I am a Distinguished Professor at the Department of Sociology at National Taiwan University.

As a qualitative sociologist, I explore the complexity of intersecting social inequalities in everyday life, shaped by macro power dynamics such as globalization and international migration. Through my research, I seek to foster critical dialogues between academic scholarship and public conversations.

I received my BA and MA in sociology from National Taiwan University, and my PhD in sociology from Northwestern University. I was 2024-2025 Stanford-Taiwan Social Science Fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University, 2011-2012 Yenching-Radcliffe fellow at Harvard University, 2026-2007 Fulbright scholar at New York University, and a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Working Families, University of California, Berkeley (2000-2001). I also held visiting positions at the Waseda Institute for Advanced Study, Kyoto University, Tubingen University, and IIAS at Leiden University.

I was the founding director of Global Asia Research Center (GARC) at National Taiwan University (2017-2023). I have actively engaged in international professional networks, serving as Deputy Editor for Gender & Society (2023-2026) and an editor or board member for ten esteemed journals. My expertise has been sought by various local government agencies and global organizations, including my role on the advisory board for the UN Women.
