I am currently a second year PhD student in linguistics at Stony Brook University, where I work with my advisor Thomas Graf. My main interest is computational linguistics, especially exploring complexity of natural language (for now, morphology and phonology), modeling of morphosyntactic parameters and determining the distances between languages (computational typology).

I hold Specialist (approx. MA) degree from Lomonosov Moscow State University, where I was doing fieldwork in Turkic (Tatar, Balkar) and Mongolian (Buryat) languages and investigated several syntactic topics, such as nominal quantifiers in Russian, possessive constructions in Balkar or negative constructions in Buryat.
