I am a Professor and Director of the Center for Language Research (CLR) and member of the Graduate School of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Aizu. I have a Ph.D in Linguistics (phonetics) from the University of British Columbia (Canada), an M.A. in Teaching English as a Foreign/Second Language from the University of Birmingham (U.K.), and a Bachelor of Mathematics from the University of Waterloo (Canada). My main research interests are speech production and L2 acquisition of pronunciation. Experimental phonetics - both articulatory and acoustic phonetics - underlies most of my work. Since 2000, I have specialized in using ultrasound as a tool to view and measure the tongue during speech. I am also interested in tracking the motion of articulators such as the lips and jaw, and I have used motion capture systems such as Optotrak and Vicon MX, as well as video to do this. The CLR Phonetics Lab is where I do much of my research. In my teaching, I often make use of Moodle and Schoology, learning management systems. My specific research interests include Articulatory Settings (as seen through inter-speech rest posture) in monolinguals and bilinguals, and L1/L2 acquisition of phonology and phonetics (including using ultrasound for visual biofeedback of the tongue).
