Welcome to my website! My hope is that it will give you some idea of who I am and what I do all day long at CSUB (and beyond). Take a look, and if something looks interesting, feel free to contact me.

I study the psychology of language (oral, written, and signed) and memory. I look at questions like:

• How do we understand speech?
• Are speech and reading that different from each other, psychologically speaking?
• What happens when people have difficulties with language?
• Why do we have so much trouble teaching a computer to speak and understand speech?
• What role does sound of words play in processing silent reading?

To our students we are known as psycholinguists, but we call ourselves Wordnerds.
