- Education: BA & MA (Hebrew University of Jerusalem), MA & PhD (Ohio State University)
Research interests include resource-light approaches to morphology, figurative language processing, and cross-lingual NLP applications. Recent work emphasizes euphemism detection, controversial language analysis, and ethical AI in censorship detection. She has organized major workshops such as CLfL and NLP4IF, and her lab develops tools like positional tagsets and learner corpus annotation frameworks. Her NSF-funded projects focus on low-cost linguistic resource creation and figurative language processing.
Her publications span NLP conferences (ACL, NAACL, CICLing) and journals, with contributions to idiom recognition, sentiment analysis, and multilingual NLP. Supervised over 20 students in computational linguistics research across undergraduate and graduate levels. Current projects include euphemism detection datasets and AI ethics in healthcare consultations.
Labs/teams: Director of NLP Lab at Montclair State University, core member of CLfL workshop series, and co-founder of NLP4IF initiative.
