1.    Why did you join AALLc?

I am an Asian American and have the subject interests in Chinese and American comparative law. AALLC provides the venue for me to meet Asian American law librarians and other ethnic law librarians who are interested in Chinese law and the opportunities to exchange research ideas on legal research on foreign, comparative, and international law. I have benefited by receiving motoring from several retired and senior members of AALLC for my professional growth.

2.    What do you do as a law librarian?

I have been the Director of Technical Services and Lecturer in Law at Washington University School of Law for many years. I manage the Technical Services Department, provide reference services, and teach a legal research class. I also research and publish on Chinese law. I have also participated in professional association activities, such as AALL, AALLC, and CAFLL (Chinese and American Forum on Legal Information and Libraries).

3.    What do you enjoy most about your job? 

The job I enjoy most is to research and teach the subject of legal research while I am also enjoying all arears of my job.
