bio Rice University PhD under Anne Klein in 2015. Thesis: "To Know a Buddha: A Tibetan Contemplative History and Its Implications for Religious Studies". This dissertation examines the introduction, critique, and re-framing of other-emptiness (gzhan-stong) by Dolpopa Sherab Gyaltsen (1292–1361), Tsongkhapa Lobsang Drakpa (1357–1419), and Jamgon Kongtrul (1813-1899) respectively. Each author's writings on emptiness were deeply informed by his own contemplative and visionary experiences. Such peak religious moments—along with historical, social, and textual context—must be considered seriously to provide the richest possible history of other-emptiness.
