ALUMNUS OLIVER NORTHRUP

In May of this year, Oliver Northrup completed his PhD with a dissertation entitled Grounds for Commitment.  WHASC recently had the chance to catch up with what he’s been doing since:

I moved down to Southern California over the summer and did some corpus linguistics work for a law firm in Santa Monica. In early September, I started work as an Analytical Linguist at Google LA, near Venice Beach. The work is interesting so far, and the neighborhood is fun too; Venice reminds me of Santa Cruz, so it’s easy to feel at home.
