About
I'm a researcher, professor and administrator at the University of Miami. My work explores language, cognition and behavior across the world's cultures. It relies on varied methods, from field work in Amazonia, to computational analyses of data from many distinct populations, to experimental tests of the aerosol particles people produce while speaking. This research, some of it involving collaborations with other scholars and awesome students, has appeared in three books and many journals across several disciplines. For more info check out my publications page.
I'm a Senior Associate Dean in the College of Arts & Sciences at the University of Miami and a Professor in the Anthropology Department, with a secondary appointment in Psychology. I'm a member of the inaugural class of Andrew Carnegie Fellows.
Teaching
I teach a variety of courses at UM, which has so many incredible students, and have previously taught on Semester at Sea.
