Specializing in English literary studies with emphasis on London-centric modernism, their research intersects spatial theory, visual culture, and literary representation. Key scholarly focus includes Virginia Woolf's London writings, urban poetics, and cross-cultural educational frameworks. Their work consistently examines how cities shape narrative forms and ideological constructs through visual-verbal interfaces.

Publications reveal sustained engagement with London's literary topography across 12 books/chapters and 21 peer-reviewed articles. The most recent works analyze digital language pedagogy (2024), life-writing theory (2024), and Taiwan's English education landscape (2023), demonstrating evolving scholarly trajectory from textual analysis to contemporary educational applications. Conference presentations since 2000 document deepening specialization in urban literary studies.

Teaching responsibilities encompass 82 course periods since 2013, primarily instructing English Literature I/II, History of English Language, Literature and Language Teaching, and Structure of English courses. Their pedagogical approach integrates literary theory with language education across undergraduate programs.
