Research Interests
My areas of interest converge around phonetics, phonology, adult language learning, and educational technology in language courses. My current dissertation proposal is to analyze the phonological structure of Spanish using the Dresherian Hierarchy and the ways in which this framework can be effectively incorporated into the Spanish language classroom.
