I am grateful for the students who I have been able to learn alongside, and find passion in improving my pedagogical practice. During my graduate studies I was fortunate to learn the skills of teaching through mentorship from senior instructors and practice as both a teaching assistant and instructor of record. I actually discovered the field of linguistics while completing the English as a Second Language Teaching certificate program at the University of Utah! As an undergraduate, I was a student teacher of Intermediate ESL and Content ESL Math and Science at Cottonwood High School in Salt Lake City, Utah. I also was a teaching instructor for language and assimilation tutors at Catholic Community Services of Utah.
I am currently an Assistant Professor at Simon Fraser University, and teach courses in the Linguistics department and Social Data Analytics program, teaching all tenures of students. I was a Visiting Assistant Professor of linguistics at Western Washington University for the 2024-2025 academic year, teaching various linguistics courses at the undergraduate level. As a graduate student at UW, I was a TA for various Linguistics and Computer Science courses. My teaching evaluations are here.
