I am a third year doctoral student in Developmental Psychology at the University of Chicago. I work with Alex Shaw at the DIBS Lab and Dan Yurovsky at the Communication and Learning Lab.

Broadly, I am interested in the intersection between language and social cognition across development. My current work explores the language cues that children use to infer others’ mental-states, as well as how children adapt language to a listener’s mental-states. Methodologically, I rely on behavioral experiments with adults and children, corpus analysis, and computational modeling.

Prior to coming to the University of Chicago, I worked with Claire Hughes at the University of Cambridge and Jennifer Henderlong Corpus at Reed College.
