I am a PhD student at the Grammar and Variation Lab, University of Rochester. I am interested in working on Indo-Aryan languages spoken in various parts of India, such as Hindi, Haryanvi, Bhojpuri, and Bengali. I am currently looking at Discourse Particles and Definiteness in Hindi.

Research interests: Interdisciplinary topics of psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, cognitive science, and computational linguistics.
