My interests lie in the educational implications of language research, with a particular focus on supports for students who speak non-mainstream dialects. My advisor is Dr. Jan Edwards in the Hearing & Speech department, and I am working on the Toggle Talk project, studying the efficacy of an African American English code-switching curriculum. I hold a BA and MA in Linguistics from Yale University, where I was a founding member of the Yale Grammatical Diversity Project. I've also worked in a variety of roles in the field of education, including time as a Fulbright English Teaching Assistant in Germany and as an Education Pioneers Analyst Fellow at the Newark Charter School Fund in Newark, NJ.
