I am Professor and Chair of the Department of Linguistics at UC San Diego. My main (but not only) area of interest is discourse interpretation, studied from the perspectives of theoretical linguistics, computational linguistics, and psycholinguistics. Explore the links above and below to find out more about me.
I direct the department's Computational Linguistics Lab. My students are: Henry Beecher, Lucien Carroll, Emily Hayes, Laura Kertz, Staci Osborn, and Lara Taylor. Check out what they're up to!
Congratulations to graduate student Laura Kertz, who has accepted a faculty position in the Department of Cognitive, Linguistics, and Psychological Sciences at Brown University.
Congratulations to former graduate student Hannah Rohde, who will be joining the Department of Linguistics at Stanford University as a Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow this summer.
