Profile

My research primarily concerns the way that languages interact in the mind of multilinguals and language learners. I use a combination of corpus-based and experimental methods to investigate how language is acquired, produced, processed and understood by language learners. My teaching experience covers a broad range of topics in linguistics, including first and second language acquisition, bi/multilingualism and cognition, corpus linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics and syntax. I also have a keen interest in statistical analysis and data visualisation, with experience in regression analysis, mixed effects modelling, statistical bootstrapping and item response theory.
