My current research centers on language structure and use in medical
question-answering, focusing specifically on health literacy and
consumer-oriented medical language; I also assist in editing articles, dissertations, grant proposals, and just about anything else that comes across my desk. Before arriving in Milwaukee, I conducted
linguistic analysis on large business corpora as part of e-discovery,
and previous to that, I did fieldwork, transcription and analysis
under the direction of William Kretzschmar and Lee Pederson toward the
development of a Linguistic Atlas of the Western States. I am also
interested in the sociolinguistics and pragmatics of courtroom trials
and the written representation of conversation in literature.
