Instructor's Courses

I research, consult, and educate on issues involving language and culture. My current focus is on bias in both everyday interactions and organizational systems. Subscribe to my monthly newsletter for inclusive language tips and topical analysis: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/worthwhile-language-6942889525505388544/ As a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) consultant, I specialize in the ways that language expresses bias. I work with HR leaders and C-suite executives to help organizations improve workplace culture, especially around unfairness and exclusion. I also do legal consulting on the language of bias and discrimination. My academic research focuses on the intersection of anthropology and NLP/AI, including eliminating bias in AI and systematizing variability in cross-cultural communication.
