Me and my interests
I'm a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Linguistics and English Language at the University of Manchester in Manchester, UK. My theoretical interests are in the crosslinguistic study of the morphosyntax/semantics interface. I am also a field linguist with interests in language documentation and description.
Languages
Languages of particular interest to me:
- The Misumalpan languages, especially Ulwa (aka Southern Sumu).
- Tongan
- Spanish, Portuguese
Miscellanea
When I'm not doing linguistics, I enjoy
keeping up on current events, learning about Latin American history
and politics, hiking,
travelling, and
spending time
with my partner,
Melissa
Koontz-Garboden.
A pair of shoes I'd like to own.
