I have long suspected that Gwen understands the incredible power of combining Cognitive Science with the study of English- a deadly combo that I also pursued as an undergraduate. More than any other Cog Sci graduate in recent years, Gwen has the knowledge, skills, and imaginative power to help shape the way we think about innumerable possible futures.
