Biography

I am pursuing my MA in Linguistics under the supervision of Dr. Flynn. My main research interests are phonology and syntax, focusing on the ways in which the syntax influences the phonology, as well as computer language processing.

During my undergraduate studies, I worked on a project on affrication sandhi patterns in Canadian French. My computer science coursework included work on machine learning models for language and the foundations of formal semantics.

If I’m not working, I’m probably making music. I sing in several choirs and play piano for a few more. I also hope to explore the linguistics of music in the future.
