Short presentation
I am currently engaged in the documentation and description of the Čohkkiras dialect of North Saami (Saamic, Uralic), spoken in Sweden and Norway. You can find an interview on my work here (in North Saami), and read more about the project here (in English). I have also worked with documenting Lule Saami, and I have published a pedagogical description of the Lule Saami verb inflection. My research interests include linguistic variation, contact and change.
