| My research focuses on how language contributes to national identity constructions
in Hungary. I explore how Hungarians as new Europeans view their language,
especially with regard to its distinctness from other languages. My other
research interests include the connection between language ideology, politics
and the European Union. I became interested in Eastern Europe as a Peace
Corps volunteer in Bulgaria, followed by a year teaching in Budapest through
the Fulbright program. I received my BA in anthropology from the University
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and my MA from Northern Illinois University.
