I obtained my PhD in Sociology from the University of Toronto, where I was most recently a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada Doctoral Fellow. I am a research member of the Zambian division of the International Centre for Disability and Rehabilitation and Canada member of the Canada-International HIV and Rehabilitation Research Collaborative (CIHRRC). I am also an elected fellow of the Royal Asiatic Society. I have previously held interdisciplinary research positions across the London School of Economics & Political Science in the United Kingdom, where I also received my M.Sc. in Social Research Methodology, University of Malaya in Malaysia, National Sun Yat-Sen University in Taiwan, Seoul National University and Yonsei University in South Korea. My work has been supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), the Government of Ontario, Mitacs International, and public institutions around the world.
