I am a fourth-year graduate student in the UMass Department of Linguistics, where I research psycholinguistics, computational syntax, and African American Language. In my free time, you can find me reading or playing with my cat, Layla.

I am currently working on developing a prospectus for my dissertation, which plans to focus on psycholinguistic processing in African American Language. I am also working on a project involving long-distance dependencies in Turkish and a project on the processing of English idioms.
