I am a linguist and I mainly work in theoretical phonology.
My main research interest is the phonology-morphology interface and hence phenomena like non-concatenative morphology and lexical exceptions to phonological processes. Much of my work focusses on supra-segmental phenomena like prosodic structure or tone.
One empirical focus of my work are indigenuous languages of America: I work, for example, on tone in Otomanguean, on non-concatenative morphology in Salishan, on verbal agreement in Algonquian, on lexical exceptions in Maipurean, or reduplication in Wakashan.

My Emmy Noether research group on `Grammatical Strength in Prosodic Morphology: Typology and Theory' (homepage) started in May 2019.
From March to November 2018, I was a Visiting Researcher at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver with a DFG-funded research project on `Multiple Reduplication: Typology and Theory' (homepage). I previously worked as Research Associate at Leipzig University and in two DFG-funded research projects: one on Featural Affixes and one on Hierarchy Effects in Kiranti and Broader Algic. And here I am cycling to the totem poles in Stanley Park, Vancouver. CONTACT
[my first name][dot][my last name][at][uni-leipzig][dot][de] When I'm not doing linguistics, I love to spend time outdoors, especially on my bike or on a climbing wall. Since I also love to make lists and maps, here is a list of all the climbing spots (indoors and outdoors) I visited so far:
