I am an experimental psychologist with research interests in cognitive psychology and the psychology of language. My specific areas of research are the following:
Discourse processing and pragmatics
Experimental studies of communication strategies (e.g., how people go about fulfilling their communicative goals).
Figurative language
How (and why) do people communicate using nonliteral means, such as with irony or hyperbole?
Computer-mediated communication
How do mediums like e-mail, texts, and tweets affect the communication process?
