His dissertation, entitled "Beyond the monolingual core and out into the wild: A variationist study of early bilingualism and sound change in Toronto Heritage Cantonese" is the first dissertation to be based on data from the Heritage Language Variation and Change in Toronto Corpus, a milestone for this project.
