About Me

I am a Solutions Analyst at Gradual. In December 2023, I received a PhD in Linguistics from University of California, Los Angeles. The title of my dissertation is The syntax of negation in Korean given an antisymmetric and cartographic framework. My advisor was Hilda Koopman. From 2019 to 2022, I was a Lecturer at Department of English, Korea Military Academy.

As a researcher, my general interests are in syntax and its interface with semantics or phonology. My specific interests lie in all topics related to negation, including scope of negation, negative indefinites, negative polarity items, and intervention effects. I am also highly interested in co-speech gestures and exploring ways to formalize and incorporate them into linguistic theory.
