![]() Welcome I'm a graduate student in the Department of Linguistics at the Ohio State University, and I have been studying linguistics since I was an undergraduate at Northern Illinois University in the late 1990s. In my current work, I study accent variation based on social factors such as social class, age, sex, and race among blue and white collar European and African Americans living in Columbus, OH. Before coming to OSU, I also worked for several years as a research assistant investigating technology integration and bilingual education issues in schools throughout the Midwest at the North Central Regional Educational Laboratory (now Learning Point Associates) in Naperville, IL. |
