About

My name is Sann Wilder (Sann rhymes with ‘dawn’), I use they/them pronouns, and I am very excited to be starting at SFU in September! My research interests include Indigenous language revitalization, critical discourse analysis, ecolinguistics, and the syntax/semantics of gendered language. In my free time I chip away at my science fiction novel, read every book that crosses my path, and play with my needy senior cat, Theo. 

Fellowships
