Currently, I am focusing on my Ph.D. coursework and working at Boalt Hall School of Law as a graduate researcher, after having spent a year in Europe lecturing at the Center for Digital Technology & Management at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich, Germany. In 2005-6, I conducted research on wireless technologies, namely RFID, as a Fulbright Fellow. During the 2005 spring semester, I finished my Master's degree at the University of California, Berkeley's School of Information Management and Systems (SIMS), mReplay, an information system offering instant sports replay in mobile phones and devices.
