I primarily investigate how learners of Spanish become more competent in various contexts, such as online environments, face-to-face classes, and immersion (i.e. study abroad). This encompasses a variety of fields within Second Language Acquisition, including Sociolinguistics, Phonology and Phonetics and Pragmatics. I also investigate how learners of Spanish and first language (L1) speakers utilize and develop linguistic features that vary due to social, geographical or linguistic reasons as well as the teaching of these variable features to learners of Spanish.
I regularly teach courses for learners of Spanish including Introductory Spanish and topics courses in Hispanic Linguistics. I have also taught methods courses for current and future foreign language teachers including Foreign Language Methods in the K-12 classroom and Second Language Acquisition.
