Me

I resigned from NYU effective 8/31/24. Right now I work in Data Operations for Surge AI.
My resignation was for personal reasons. I urge every academic in a position of relative power to read this and think about it.

Primary research interests
• Phonological typology
• Phonetics-phonology interface
• Representation and analysis of rhythmic phenomena
• Computational methods
