About


I'm a PhD student at the Grup de Lingüística Formal, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, under the supervision of Dr. Martina Wiltschko and Dr. Karolina Grzech. My research focuses on the relationship between language and emotions. Particularly, I'm interested in describing how people use interactional particles to express emotive and epistemic stances in conversation.

In order to do so, I apply methods from Interactional Linguistics to describe these particles from a sequential perspective across different social activities—storytelling, interviews, trouble-tellings, etc. This allows me to determine the functions of these particles, as well as the role of context and prosody in their interpretability.
