I am a postdoctoral research fellow in the Bernoulli Institute for Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, and Mathematics at the University of Groningen.


My main area of research is the interface between theories of grammar and computational models of cognition. I am particularly interested in the link between grammar and on-line processing, including the syntax-prosody interface. I use language data from English and Korean.


My theoretical work is mainly within Lexical Functional Grammar, an established, non-derivational, computationally robust grammar framework, although I am interested in other frameworks such as Dynamic Syntax. For computational modelling I mostly use the ACT-R cognitive architecture.


You can find me on Academia.edu, LinkedIn and Twitter. I am also a visiting academic at the Faculty of Linguistics, Philology, and Phonetics at the University of Oxford, where I completed my DPhil in 2019.
