I have always been fascinated with Languages, not just the words themselves, but with the structures and sounds.
In retrospect I find it hard to believe that I didn't discover Linguistics until nearly the end of high school.
I began taking courses at the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor), and my love for the subject grew from there. I recently completed my undergraduate education with a Bachelor of Science in Linguistics and Psychology,
and a minor in TESOL. While I enjoy all aspects of Linguistics, I am particularly interested in psycholinguistics,
language documentation/revitalization and sociolinguistics. I have done a bit of work on language attitudes, the
endangered language of Ekegusii (spoken in Kenya), and helped with various psycholinguistic experiments at TedLab. Here at LINGUIST List I currently serve as our Publications Manager, team leader for our Public Relations efforts,
and am a member of the NSF funded LL-Map project. In my spare time you can usually find me curled up with a book,
or biking down beautiful Michigan roads.
