I am a PhD candidate in the Ohio State University Linguisitcs Department where I research morphology. My research focuses on the morphology-semantics interface(s) in abstractive, Word-and-Paradigm-style systems. My research integrates two methodologies, formal modeling and elicitation-based fieldwork.
My dissertation research studies the properties of Wao Terero lexical suffix constructions. Wao Terero is a linguistic isolate spoken by an unknown number of speakers in the Ecuadorian Amazon.
In addition to my current work. I have also worked with languages in the Algonquian and Quechuan families. I have had a long involvement with the digital humanities, contributing technical skills to a number of documentation projects that have resulted in valuable resources for both researchers and the communities involved. Lately I have been working with a team that seeks to create advanced tools for linguistic description and annotation that utilize advanced NLP and machine learning techniques.
