I am currently a professor in the Hugh Downs School of Human Communication and former director of Asian Pacific American Studies at Arizona State University. My research is focused on developing critical approaches to intercultural communication and public communication. I am a fellow of the International Academy of Intercultural Research, a former Fulbrighter at the Université de Mons-Hainaut in Belgium, and I was on the Board of Directors of the Arizona Humanities Council. I currently serve on the editorial boards of Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies, the International and Intercultural Communication Annual, Journal of Intercultural Communication Research, and the Western Journal of Communication.
