National expert Dr. Suzanne Wertheim is on the leading edge of inclusive language

After getting her Ph.D. in Linguistics from Berkeley, Dr. Wertheim held faculty positions at Northwestern, University of Maryland, and UCLA. In 2011, she left the university system in order to apply her expertise to real-world problems.

She now runs Worthwhile Research & Consulting, which specializes in analyzing and addressing bias at work.

At Worthwhile, Dr. Wertheim offers customized training for clients based on her original research and leads both short-term and long-term consulting engagements.
