About me

Welcome! I am a linguist specializing in syntax and morphology. You can find my CV here.

I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of English Language and Literature at Gyeongsang National University (GNU) in Korea. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Pennsylvania where I worked with Marlyse Baptista. I received my PhD from New York University (NYU) where I worked with Alec Marantz.

My projects focus on how nominal arguments are represented and licensed in syntax. I also examine the syntactic size of entity nominalizations (e.g., a sing-er) by drawing evidence from understudied and underrepresented languages.

My research also focuses on evaluating large language models (LLMs) on tasks related to linguistic dependencies. I am also interested in how LMs handle low-resource and typologically diverse languages.

Research interests

• Nominal structure & nominalizations
• Argument structure
• Case & discourse markers
• (L)LM performance
