I am a third year Ph.D. student 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.
