Experience
Organizer, Linguistics Career Launch
Jan 2021 — Present · US
I\'m part of a scrappy band of 6, all previously leaders of Linguistics Beyond Academia (SIG of the Linguistics Society of America). Our mission is to assure that students who earn linguistics degrees have access to information about careers in industry, business, tech, non-profits and government. And that their faculty advisors, department chairs, and deans also know there are resources for linguistics students.In July 2021 our team offered a one-month intensive LinguisticsCareerLaunch.com, a \"boot camp\" for career-curious linguistics students, faculty, and administrators. The recorded content from those sessions is available and free via our website or YouTube channel, gathered into thematic playlists.Summer 2022 engaged a new group with 2+ month long Tweetorial, covering similar content in asynchronous tweets and synchronous Gather meetings. Meanwhile we continued to record and share our presentations to various conferences.Since December 2022 we are producing LinguistCareercast.com, a podcast featuring people with linguistics degrees at all levels who share their career journeys into many fields, where they may or may not be called \"linguist.\"
