Christine Soh Yue

Hi! I’m currently a sixth-year Ph.D. student in linguistics at the University of Pennsylvania. I work primarily on first language acquisition and syntax. I combine theoretical, experimental, and computational approaches to explore the mechanisms of language and of language learning. My advisors are Charles Yang and Katie Schuler, but I also work with Julie Legate and Martin Salzmann on interesting problems in syntax, with John Trueswell and Sandy Latourrette in investigating how children acquire words.

Before coming to UPenn, I got my B.S. at MIT double majoring in Computer Science (6-3) and Linguistics (24-2).

I am from Boulder, Colorado, where I enjoyed hiking, skiing, and spending time outside. Beyond linguistics, my Christian faith is important to me, and I enjoy cooking (mostly Korean food but also other foods too!), hand-lettering, playing guitar, and making things in general!
