My interests are in semantics, pragmatics, philosophy of language, East and South Asian languages, and, more recently, computational and neuro approaches to meaning-related problems. Before this I completed my B.A.s in Philosophy and Linguistics at New York University and was fortunate to have my honors thesis supervised by Prof. Chris Barker.
I’m especially interested in topics involving measurement and quantity (e.g., quantification, distributivity, ratio expressions), modality, and focus-sensitive particles. I like to examine single constructions with multiple functions, as well as multiple expressions with similar functions, cross-linguistically. I still read philosophy for fun, as well as some other literature and social science stuff so I’d be happy to talk about them too.
