Happy that this proposal was accepted for #ACTFL2025, especially to see that work with trans and nonbinary students is seen as valuable. However, this is such an expensive conference and I am unsure of what travel will be possible for so many reasons. Are you planning to attend? #langchat

Honored to receive the DSERG (Distinguished Service and Engaged Research Graduate Student Award in Relation to Diversity Efforts) at #AAAL2025. Huge thanks to all who stuck around until the last session of the conference to hear about nonbinary teens' investment in language learning. Till next year!

You are so sweet. I've been thinking of you - we should catch up! <3

It has become increasingly dangerous to fly while #trans and it will get worse if we don't speak up against this. This takes two minutes. Please do and share.
