I am a fourth-year student in the PhD program in Linguistics at UCLA.

My main interests lie in phonology, phonologization, phonetic implementation, and in intonation: how do alternations become fixed in the abstract representations in our minds? how do we get to sound from the representation? what implications does intonation hold for phonology at large?

I am currently most interested in the factors that affect allophone-like variation in phonetic fine detail.

I have worked on English, French, Mandarin, Burmese, and Icelandic.
