Xochimilco, Mexico: Walking with local artist Juan Guillermo Ley during 2016 fieldwork.
I'm a sociocultural linguist with specialities in language learning, popular media, and intercultural communication. I'm also a digital media producer with interests in popular culture, science fiction, technology, and language and education policy.

Using ethnography, I join with people in their homes, and places of work and learning to understand who they are and how they communicate. I enjoy connecting with diverse audiences, and I'm an advocate for hands-on, participatory learning.
#LanguageStory is a video series and blog I created to discuss people-centered perspectives on communication, intercultural learning, and the impact of anthropological research. My forthcoming book is Zombies Speak Swahili.
