Broadly, my research interests revolve around phonology, phonetics, and sociolinguistics.
More specifically, I am interested in experimental phonology, artificial language acquisition, word segmentation, and sociophonetic investigations of sound change in progress.<\/p>\n

Word segmentation<\/strong> – Most recently, I have been studying the possible cues to word segmentation for adult Japanese and English speakers, looking at both language-specific (experience based) and language-independent (experience independent) cues, by using an artificial learning paradigm.
Vocalic outliers<\/strong> – In recent years, I have also been studying the perception of vocalic outliers by local Michiganders and how it relates to their participation in sound change.<\/p>\n
