  Welcome to my website! On these pages you will find information about my research, teaching, publications and other activities.
           PUBLICATIONS I am a lecturer in phonology at Essex. My main research interest is phonology. I am interested in understanding how phonology acts as a device that aids speakers in lexical access. To this effect I am interested in phonological processes that help speakers to demarcate domains of different shapes and sizes, leading to my interest in the interaction between phonology and syntax. Apart from this really exciting stuff I am also interested in the finer phonological details of segment alternations and the representations that can best capture them. Empirically I work on Bantu languages exploring more or less any aspect of them. More recently I have begun to look at issues in second language phonology and are slowly edging into issues to do with phonological processing.
