Bio

I'm an M.A. student in Applied Linguistics and Second Language Acquisition. I'm fluent in Japanese and have taught English at the university level in Japan and managed a Japanese restaurant in New York alongside Japanese staff. Before learning Japanese, I had a high level of proficiency in French. Seeing my abilities in French decline got me interested in subjects such as multilingualism, language maintenance, and language attrition. I hope to conduct research that addresses the needs of people who want to go back to languages and don't know where to start.
