About Me

I am a software engineer and a linguist.  I hold a bachelors degree in Middle Eastern Studies from the University of Utah, a Master’s degree in linguistics from Francisco Marroquín University in Guatemala City and working on a double doctorate degree in Archaeology and Mathematics.

My research focuses on four areas: 

  • Artificial intelligence algorithms within historical linguistics and epigraphy.
  • Morphosyntax in Mesoamerican and Mesopotamian languages.
  • Linguistics of the Book of Mormon and early members within the LDS faith movement in the 19th century.
  • Linguistics and liberty. How language affects perceptions of liberty.
