Her academic journey includes a PhD in Architecture from the University of California, Berkeley, with a Designated Emphasis in Global Metropolitan Studies, complemented by advanced degrees in Architecture from Seoul National University. Ph.D in Architecture, University of California, Berkeley M.S. in Architecture, Seoul National University B. Arch (Bachelor of Architecture), Seoul National University Eom's research program centers on the intersection of race, migration, and the built environment through historical inquiry. Her work interrogates colonial architecture and urbanism, empire studies, migration and diaspora, race and racism, Asian/American architecture, infrastructures, and archives. She approaches race and empire as inherent in contemporary global urbanism, situating East Asia's colonial space within global circuits of urban ideas and forms that circulate race and racism across continents. Her scholarship examines transnational connections of ideas and things that have received little scholarly attention in architectural and urban history. Eom's publications reveal consistent engagement with transnational urban phenomena, particularly focusing on Chinatowns as material and imaginative spaces that connect Asia and the Americas through histories of empire, labor migration, and violence. Her work demonstrates how architectural forms travel across regions while acquiring new meanings, with particular attention to how race shapes urban space. Her articles collectively trace the movement of people and ideas across port cities, treaty ports, shophouses, elevated highways, cemeteries, and mosques as sites where racial imaginings are both reflected and transmitted. Korean Literature Association Article Prize (2025) Alice Ross Carey Fellowship from UC Berkeley College of Environmental Design Society of Architectural Historians IDEAS Research Fellowship Academy of Korean Studies Fellowship International Planning History Society Best Postgraduate Paper Award Eom actively contributes to expanding postcolonial urban studies through her work with the Society of Architectural Historians and Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum on the project "Rediscovering Asian American and Pacific Islander Architects & Designers."

Her ongoing research projects include the book manuscript "Traveling Chinatowns: Migration, Proximity, and Violence across the Pacific" which situates Chinatown within the global history of empire and anti-migrant violence, and "Asian American Midcentury Modern," a monograph foregrounding race and racism in modernist discourse by centering American architects of Asian descent in midcentury architecture history.
