About me

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Linguistic and Cultural Evolution. My research interests include language documentation, historical linguistics, and linguistic typology. My areal focus is on the languages of the Pacific, especially those of Papua New Guinea. I have worked the most closely with the Keram language family (East Sepik Province). I am also a member of the Comparative Oceanic Linguistics (CoOL) research group.
