Linh Le-Phuong is a media researcher and lecturer at RMIT Vietnam. Prior to joining RMIT, she taught at Fulbright University Vietnam and earned her doctorate from KU Leuven (Belgium). Her scholarship traces the shifting connections between media, migration, and gender, mostly focusing on the East Asian context. Her current projects investigate performances of care on YouTube, racialised beauty ideals in the Vietnamese fashion industry, and the financial strategies underpinning Vietnamese labour migration on TikTok. When she’s not grading or researching, Linh can be found enthusiastically adding new titles to her ever-expanding to-read list, a collection that grows much faster than her actual reading time.
