I work as a Senior Lecturer in the Department of English, Linguistics & Cultural Studies at the University of Westminster. I was educated at the University of Newcastle, UK where I took an MA and PhD degree in English Language and Linguistics. My research interests are in Sociolinguistics, the Sociology of Language, Anthropological Linguistics, Pidgin and Creole linguistics, the analysis of conversational code-switching in bilingual communities, and corpus linguistics - especially problems of bilingual spoken corpora, bilingual education and cross-cultural pragmatics.
