Biography
After graduating from the University of Birmingham in 1999, I spent two years living and working in China. On my return to the UK, I embarked on further study in London before pursuing a D.Phil at the University of Oxford. After a year as a postdoctoral associate at the Council on East Asian Studies, Yale University, I joined the department here at Leicester in 2010.
