I strive to take an interdisciplinary perspective in my research. My work is guided by this broad question: How does socio-cultural experience shape cognition and the way we use language?

I have looked at this question(and continue to examine it) from multiple perspectives - from how grandparents' sociolinguistic context influences intergeneration language transmission, to how biculturalism influences bilingual's domain general processing.

I enjoy blurring the line between psycho- and socio- linguistics.
