About Me
- Chris
- Washington, DC, DC, United States
- I am a linguist who has worked in academia, government consulting, NLP, and the branding and marketing industry. I used to be a graduate student in linguistics specializing in the syntax-semantics interface and verb classes (can you say "Ay-Bee-Dee" boys and girls?). I'm currently a software trainer/consultant with a large defense contractor in the Washington DC metro area.
