Welcome

I'm Nick. This is my personal website where I write about various projects I work on.

I used to be a theoretical linguist specializing in natural language syntax and morphology. I taught linguistics at the University of Massachusetts and the University of Toronto after receiving my PhD from UMass Amherst in 2016. I left the field in 2019. I keep papers here that I've written, as well as old teaching materials here. Let me know if you find them useful!

I occasionally write about other interests, including bicycling and music.
