BIO I began teaching at the University of the West Indies (Mona Campus) in 1991, and have had primary responsibility there for courses in formal linguistics and creole linguistics. I have been a fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology (Leipzig, Germany), the Centre for Caribbean Studies at Warwick University (Coventry, UK), the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study (Wassenaar, the Netherlands), and the University of Orléans (France), and I have received a Mona Campus Principal's Research Fellowship. I am currently Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and Education at the Mona Campus, an appointment which ends July 31st, 2025. Finally, as member of the Jamaican Caves Organisation, I have collaborated with fellow JCO members and visiting researchers in documenting the distribution of the larva of the predacious fly Neoditomyia farri in caves across Jamaica.
