I work at the intersection of Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning, and Computational Social Science. My research develops methods to integrate structured knowledge with machine learning for NLP, with a particular emphasis on discourse modeling. I am also broadly interested in human-centered aspects of language technology and in the use of NLP to study socio-technical systems. Collaboration across disciplines is central to my work. I work closely with researchers in linguistics, human-computer interaction, formal methods, security, biomedical informatics, and the behavioral and social sciences.
