I am a Ph.D. candidate in linguistics at University of Maryland, working with Colin Phillips and Ellen Lau. My main research interests are in morphology and psycholinguistics, both comprehension and production.
Before UMD, I completed my masters at Bogazici University Linguistics, where I worked with Pavel Logačev and write my thesis titled Agreement Attraction in Turkish.
I also visited Masaryk University where I worked with Pavel Caha on Turkish case morphology and adjectival decomposition.
