      Activities and Societies: I balanced full-time work, writing, blogging, and karate with classes to earn my degree. I've written a presentation about the Celtic influence on English, papers about how origins of place names can show where settlers and invaders came from in England, about how Maori language revitalization in New Zealand is affecting English, and did a case study of a native Arabic speaker learning English. My thesis explored how technology can be used to revitalize dying languages, using Welsh and Maori as examples.
