Hello.

I am also dedicated to supporting a technological infrastructure for field linguistics that promotes long-term data sustainability and interoperability (especially for endangered language data), and in my fieldwork I try to bridge the gap between linguistics, archiving, technology and community language activism.

Languages.

I work mainly on Athabaskan languages, especially the Northern group, including Dena'ina and Ahtna. Between 2004 and 2006 I spent fourteen months in Alaska working on the Dena'ina Archiving, Training & Access project, which included developing the Qenaga.org website and archive, teaching language technology, and conducting fieldwork.

Recently I've been working on Kannada, Khalkha Mongolian and Ladin Fascian as well. I'm an out-of-practice Italian speaker, and I studied French and Hebrew as a schoolgirl (but I've forgotten most of both).

Other interests.

In addition to linguistics, I also practice Ashtanga yoga, I like to weave fabric and knit, I'm a vegan (temporarily on sabbatical), and I'm crazy about greyhounds.
