I‘m interested in the cognitive processes related to language processing, language
production, and language learning both in mono- and bilinguals. For instance: How
does your first language affect how you learn a novel language? How do cues in the
learning environment (e.g., feedback) and language input (e.g., case marking) affect
how languages are learned? Do you plan your speech in a similar way in your first
and second language?
