I am a sociolinguist specialising in sociolinguistic perception and socio-semantics. I typically use experimental methods to explore how particular linguistic features and broader speech styles come to influence how speakers are socially evaluated. I am also keenly interested in the emerging subfield of sociosemantics, an area of research aiming to examine the limits of semantic, pragmatic and sociolinguistic frameworks for accounting for 'meaning', broadly construed.
