Looking forward to sharing my research! I also plan to discuss some of the training I received at Maitripa College and UCSB and how it has shaped my trajectory as a scholar.

Looking forward to this, not least because I translated this Sūtra for the 84000: Translating the Words of the Buddha project alongside Jed Forman and Baatra Erdene Ochir!
