About
I am a historian of the Vietnam Wars and the Global Cold War. As a “hybrid” scholar, my work bridges the gap between Vietnamese studies with US foreign relations and military history.
AFFILIATION
I am the 2026-2027 Sang-Kee Kim Postdoctoral Fellow in International Affairs of East and Southeast Asia at Harvard University’s Weatherhead Center. In 2025-2026, I concurrently served as an America in the World Consortium (AWC) Predoctoral Fellow at the University of Florida. I earned my PhD in History from Ohio University in 2026.
Archival Research
I have conducted extensive international archive research in Vietnam, France, Hungary, and the United States.
Fellowships
I have held fellowships with the Cold War Archival Research (CWAR) Institute, the Society of Military History (SMH) Summer Seminar Fellowship, the Society of American Foreign Relations Summer Institute, and three Foreign Language Area Studies (FLAS) Fellowships.
Writings
My writings have appeared in Desperta Ferro, H-Diplo, and the Journal of Military History. I have also presented conference papers at the University of California, Berkeley, Texas Tech University’s annual Vietnam War conference, & for the École française d'Extrême-Orient.
