Instructor of Linguistics and Composition

About

Biography

I am an instructor in Linguistics and Composition. My area of expertise is phonetics and phonology, focusing on experimental approaches to issues of first and second language speech production and perception. I am also interested in Romance linguistics, psycholinguistics, second language acquisition, and historical linguistics. Currently, I am interested in issues related to the transfer of L1 to L2 in second language phonology, and L2 composition issues. I primarily teach undergraduate and graduate courses in Linguistics and in the University Composition Program's Academic English course. I have an M.A. in Linguistics from University of São Paulo - Brazil and an M.A. and Ph.D. from University of Colorado at Boulder
