Research
My current areas of research are: interdisciplinary performance exploring technology and location, the use of space and time in performance, performance and choreography blending traditional and contemporary themes and forms, contemporary Asian scripts (performance and translation). Much of this research is based in practice - performance, direction, and choreography.
I have been actively presenting writing based on my practical research at conferences in North America and overseas, and have been published in print and online journals.
