I study the relation of language and thought - exploring whether universals of cognition shape all languages, and whether speakers of different languages think differently. I often use computational methods.

You can read a short news article about my work here, or here.

Current interests: how language affects perception; color naming and cognition; universals and malleability in spatial language, word learning and language learning generally.
