Helping people lead initiatives that help them and those around them.

My primary interests are in the fields of Linguistics and Computer Science. In particular, I am interested in the ways Technology influences various aspects of linguistic science.

Making education more equitable! As a former high school teacher and a current teacher educator, I dream of a day in which every student has a valuable educational experience. I long for an educational system that doesn't compartmentalize learning into disciplines (e.g., social studies, science, math, English) that are represented as discrete bodies of knowledge. In the "real-world," there are very few, if any, problems that don't require interdisciplinary knowledge application. I love classrooms and teachers that take advantage of student curiosity. The standardization of education doesn't allow for this and it is unfortunate. When every classroom has to be on the same page on the same day, it doesn't allow for the students to be unique individuals who are fully engaged in the subject at hand. I'm passionate about advocating for this type of education because I believe it could solve so many of the issues associated with equity if we were able to implement this on a large scale.
