I just completed my degree in International Studies: Asia at the University of Washington's Jackson School, concurrently with a degree in English, graduating December 2009. My focus is Indian History and the spread of Buddhism across Asia. I studied Tibetan language at Namdroling monastery in south India and at the University of Virginia under Gen Tseten Chonje.[1]
