Woodall III Assistant Professor of Teaching, Spanish Ph.D. Candidate (ABD), Applied Linguistics University of Memphis I am an applied linguist specializing in Spanish second language acquisition (SLA), AI-integrated language pedagogy, instructional design, and computational linguistics. My work focuses on how emerging technologies—particularly generative AI—can enhance language learning, teaching, and program development. At the University of Memphis, I teach across the Spanish Basic Language Program and design upper-division courses in Conversation, Composition, and Applied Linguistics. My teaching emphasizes task-based learning, spontaneous communication, and the integration of authentic materials to support meaningful language use and career-relevant skills. My research explores computational approaches to SLA, AI literacy in education, and teacher identity in language programs. My dissertation examines how research engagement among teaching-track faculty can support professional identity, institutional belonging, and program revitalization. https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2024-12-04 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/583544494043 daily 0.75 2026-04-15 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/diversity daily 0.75 2026-03-20 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/evaluations daily 0.75 2026-07-28 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/lingstica-aplicada daily 0.75 2023-04-27 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/conversacin daily 0.75 2023-10-04 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/composicion daily 0.75 2023-10-04 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/conversacion-composicion-ii daily 0.75 2024-12-04 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/intermediate-spanish-i daily 0.75 2024-12-04 https://oval-lion-2x7t.squarespace.com/intermediate-spanish-ii daily 0.75 2024-12-04
