I am a PhD student with Prof. Julia Hirschberg at the Speech Processing Lab at Columbia University. My current project involves looking at anomaly detection in the speech domain; in particular, we are investigating hedging and its effect on conversational power structures and other social outcomes of dialogue.

Some of my past projects include:

• Accent Classification through Prosodic Means
• Prosodically Informed Speaker Identification
• Social Stratification of /tr/-Affrication (presented at the Faculty of Arts Undergraduate Research Event) [poster]
• Prosodic Disambiguation in Garden Path Sentences
• Dialects of American English: Online Methods of Data Collection
• Acoustics of Vowels in Singing

I graduated from McGill University in 2009 with a BASc in Computer Science and Linguistics.
