I'm a doctoral student in Linguistics
and
Women and Gender Studies
at the University of Colorado at Boulder. I originally hale from
Oklahoma,
and did my undergrad at Oklahoma State University (Go Pokes!). I
recently recieved
my MA from CU with a graduate certificate in Culture, Language
and
Social
Practice
(CLASP)
My research is in Sociolinguistics and Linguistic Anthropology in
langauge, gender, and sexuality, and language and ethnicity with
particular interest to identity negotiation in individuals or groups
with multiple minority statuses. Specifically, I'm working with the Homa
Lusa (red black), descendents of both African American and Native
Americans (in specific decendants of the
"Five Civilized Tribes: Chickasaw, Choctaw, Cherokee, Muskogee/Creek,
Seminole).
