Biography

I teach technical tools and research methodology at the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Research Interests

I enjoy learning about why language variation exists and the patterns with which language varies. I also have started to collaborate with other authors on researching questions dealing with second language acquisition and other questions dealing with legal linguistics.

Teaching Interests

I love teaching students how to use technical tools and computer programming to answer questions about language use. I often teach students how to use Python for text processing, and a variety of tools for speech processing. I also love showing students the wonder that is the R programming language for data wrangling and data visualization, and sophisticated statistical tests.
