I am Assistant Professor and Mellon Foundation Dean's Faculty Fellow in the Department of Classical and Mediterranean Studies at Vanderbilt University, with a secondary appointment in the Department of Asian Studies. See my faculty page here.

My research and teaching center around the scientific, technical, and philosophical traditions of Greco-Roman antiquity, with a particular focus on Latin writings of the Imperial period. I also have strong interests in Greece-Rome/China comparisons and in the reception of the Western classics in modern China.
