Here are links to papers that I've published in a variety of venues, organized by topic. Note that some papers overlap (e.g., learnability papers on vowel harmony) and are listed in both categories. If a link is broken or paywalled, please contact me for a copy of the paper.
Because this is not updated as much as I'd like, you may have better luck finding papers on Google Scholar
