ABOUT ME

I am a PhD student in the Department of Linguistics at Rice University, Houston, TX. I graduated from National Taiwan University at Taipei with an MA in Linguistics in 2006. After graduation, I served in the Army at Kinmen, a small island to the west of Taiwan, for over a year. From 2007 to 2008, I worked as a research assistant on an Isbukun Bunun dictionary project until I came to Rice in Aug 2008.

My research interest includes (i) typology and universals, (ii) language documentation/revitalization, (iii) Cognitive linguistics, (iv) grammars of space, (v) Austronesian languages, (vi) Chinese languages, and (vii) Romance languages.
