A historian of imperial China and Southeast Asia, Dr. Davis offers courses on East Asia, Southeast Asia, and world history. His work crosses boundaries of geography and discipline, combining ethnographic research with archival sources to investigate the histories of communities in the uplands of the China-Southeast Asia borderlands.

He has taught at Eastern since 2012.
