About page image

I am a postdoc working with Esti Blanco-Elorrieta in the Neuroscience of Multilingualism Lab at NYU. My research combines neuroimaging methods with insights from linguistics and psychology to investigate how the (bilingual) brain flexibly integrates words into larger expressions.

I received my PhD in Linguistics at NYU, where I worked with Liina Pylkkänen in the Neurolinguistics Lab. Before that, I earned a Bachelor and Master of Arts in English Studies from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark.

The preprints of my dissertation research are now up! Part of it focused on how linguistic structure reshapes word meanings, using a syntactic and a semantic manipulation to make animacy disappear from the neural representation of a word. The final paper provides the first direct comparison of language processing during serial and parallel presentation.
