Research interests
My research primarily focuses on discourse analysis within the context of language and gender, particularly exploring how discourses related to sexual and gender minorities are shaped and maintained. My work delves into the construction of these discourses and identities through language in various domains such as law, medicine, and broader societal interactions. Additionally, my research extends to examining the integration of sexuality-related topics in educational settings, aiming to promote queer pedagogy and gender-inclusive strategies in Hong Kong's sexuality education.
