Heidi Lorimor directs the Linguistics Lab. She earned her PhD in Linguistics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2007. She teaches several courses in the Linguistics Program, including Phonetics and Phonology, Bilingualism, Psycholinguistics, and Language and the Brain. She enjoys the research process and loves working with undergrads.
