About: 

My research probes the relative contributions of the learner's own cognitive capacity and the linguistic environment in first language acquisition. To examine these components I employ a varied set of methods including preferential looking with infants, various elicitation and decision tasks with children and adults, fieldwork, computational modeling and quantitative corpus analyses.
