Research Areas and Interests

My research and interest are in close alignment with the mission and goal of Asian American Studies to provide students a way to expand their understanding of issues such as racial history, identity, gender, social justice/anti-racist movements, community and coalition building. My research has examined Asian American culture via the lens of family and parenting research. Some of my work has particularly focused on the diasporic experiences of transracially and transnationally Korean Americans as well as Hmong American families in Minnesota.
