About
I am currently working as a doctoral student at the University of Sydney. My research explores the basic interpersonal and experiential lexicogrammar of Spanish from a Systemic Functional perspective, based on written and spoken data from Chilean Spanish. The emphasis is both on the systemic organisation of clausal resources, and their interaction with meanings at the stratum of (discourse) semantics. The development of a description of this kind is oriented to the study of resources as deployed in texts from different registers, including the spoken mode.
Previous to my PhD studies, I worked as a researcher and lecturer in the Department of Language Sciences at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (2004-2008). My main areas of work included Systemic Functional Linguistics and Critical Discourse Analysis.
