Summary I am specialized in model-theoretic linguistic semantics. Within this field, my recent

interests include event semantics, conjunction, disjunction, counterfactuals, and donkey
sentences. I am also interested in distributivity, aspect and measurement, which I mainly
study from the point of view of algebraic semantics and mereology. I have worked on
quantification, negation, definite descriptions, temporal dependencies, and other topics.
I have a dual linguistics/computer science background. My research in natural language
processing has focused on investigating Tree-adjoining Grammar from different angles,
such as treebanking, dependency parsing, and computational complexity.
