I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Language Learning and Meaning Acquisition (LLaMA) Lab at Purdue University, where I am advised by Dr. Arielle Borovsky. I earned a Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. During my graduate degree, I worked with Professors Cynthia Fisher and Renee Baillargeon. My dissertation explored the role of event representations in children's reference comprehension. Before joining UIUC, I received a M.Sc. in Psychology from Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. My masters thesis was advised by Dr. Mark Sabbagh and explored the role of inhibitory control in preschoolers' use of irregular past tense verb forms.
