I am an
Associate Professor of Linguistics and Slavic Languages
and Literatures at the University of
Southern California. I received my Ph.D. in Linguistics from
the University of Pennsylvania in
2000. From 1998 to 2000, I worked as
a research associate in the Brain
and Language Lab in the Department of Neuroscience
at Georgetown University. I have been at USC since the fall of 2000.
My work
focuses on syntax and on the interface between syntax and semantics. It employs formal modeling,
cross-linguistic comparison from a synchronic and diachronic perspective,
and experimentation. Among my main
ongoing projects are:
· the grammar and
processing of degree expressions
· tense and aspect
· the
historical syntax of South Slavic
