Visiting Assistant Professor of Linguistics

Division of Philosophy, Religion, Psychology, and Linguistics
I graduated in 2016 from the University of Connecticut. Regarding teaching, I like talking about Syntax, Semantics, Morphology and Pragmatics and the way that they interact. I am very much looking forward to learning something along with students in that process. In terms of research, I am interested in syntactic and semantic theory and syntax-semantics interface in Slavic languages and the languages of the Pacific Northwest Coast. In my work, I combine a theoretical approach with fieldwork methodology. Major part of my research is focused on Gitksan, an endangered Tsimshianic language of northwest British Columbia. I also work on my first language, Serbian. Topics that I explore include, but are not limited to, temporal and aspectual interaction, (superficially) tenseless languages, clausal complementation, present tense, questions, negation.
