Hi! I'm Lindia, a final-year PhD student at CMU's Language Technologies Institute advised by Graham Neubig. I am also a frequent visitor at NYU with Tal Linzen. In Fall 2027, I will be an assistant professor at UT Austin Linguistics, joining the computational linguistics faculty and broader NLP community.
My research largely centers around understanding how language models learn and represent linguistic structure, how this influences their behavior, and how this can inform our knowledge of human language processing. These interests manifest in work across evaluation and interpretability of large language models, especially with respect to when, where, and how they may be similar or different to humans. I also work on applying these models and other NLP techniques to create tools for supporting underrepresented and endangered languages.
