I am on leave of absence until fall 2024, primarily to attend to ongoing family matters.

In between those obligations, I'll be preparing for my master's thesis on Indonesian morphophonology--along with working toward potential future projects (on Lushootseed and Cornish), improving my programming skills, and addressing my late-in-life desire to get good at Latin.
