Research

As a linguist, I am interested in semantics and its interfaces. More specifically, I investigate the meaning of tense, aspect, and modality. A belief that is woven into my work is the importance of cross-linguistic insights for semantic theory. My research has a particular empirical focus on Khalkha Mongolian, and I have the ongoing privilege of collecting semantic data in collaboration with native speakers.
