Private tutor in Oakland, CA
Education
B.A. in Linguistics, U.C. Santa Cruz, 2014
Experience
In 2014, I graduated with a B.A. in Linguistics from U.C. Santa Cruz, with focuses in Syntax and Semantics and a strong interest in computational linguistics. During my undergraduate career, I wrote multiple research papers and participated in polysemy research under Prof. Pranav Anand. My independent research has focused on particle movement. I wrote one paper detailing the semantic properties of different prepositional particles, and two exploring the syntactic structure of particle movement where I proposed a possible explanation and then furthered it.

Hobbies
Aside from linguistics, I like to build stuff from scratch. I've designed and built tube amplifiers and repair old amps and organs, and am learning how to program an Arduino microcontroller. I also like to record and mix music, and have recently started a vinyl collection. In the future, I'd like to work on computational linguistics, specifically voice technology.
