This semester, I taught Applied Text Analysis with Python — a course that guided undergrads from "What’s a loop?" to producing full-scale, data-driven projects using advanced NLP tools (including OpenAI API and Word Embeddings).

Happy that my book - Imperial Borderlands earned an Honorable Mention for the 2024 Davis Center Book Prize! Who knew that Habsburgs and military borders could still capture hearts (and minds)? Many thanks to @ASEEES and @DCRES_Harvard!
