Research Summary

In my interdisciplinary research, I focus on four strands: language learning efforts that foster multilingualism/biliteracy in school and out-of-school contexts; educational language policy and planning and its equity impact on multilingual learners designated as English learners (MLs); Latina/o/x and education; and teacher education & practices that promote the values of multilingualism, multiculturalism, and educational equity across educational settings.
