An applied linguist by training, I investigate how language-specific cognitive factors affect instructed language acquisition. I have also developed transdisciplinary curricular initiatives in the collegiate environment that range from short-term immersion experiences around sustainability issues in France, to content-based education in fine arts in the world language requirement sequence, peer-tutor training in the multilingual writing center, and civic learning and engagement with multilingual local communities. More broadly, I seek to demystify the language learning experience to foster global competences and career-ready skills at home and abroad.
