I am very proud of the people I have been privileged to mentor in advanced studies. I have learned as much from junior and developing colleagues as they have learned from me. I am so grateful.
My mentorship has focussed on studies in syntax, morphology, Dene languages and linguistics, community based research methods, ethical research, Indigenous language revitalization, language documentation, and interdisciplinary studies. Researchers working with me have investigated a wide variety of topics.
Many have investigated languages: their own, and languages belonging to other communities, such as Anishinaabemowin, Arabic, Blackfoot, Chinúk Wawa, Dene, English, Gwich’in, Japanese, Koine Greek, Korean, Lushootseed, Mandarin Chinese, Mi’kmaw, Mongolian, Nakoda, Nepali, nîhiyawîwin, Nisgä’a, Nuxalk, Nxa’amxcin, Tāłtān, Tłı̨chǫ, Tsìnlhqút’ín, and more.
Others have undertaken ground-breaking work from holistic perspectives on Indigenous language learning and language resurgence, Indigenous culture and knowledge, and Indigenous worldviews.
