Linguist with main interest in theoretical syntax, syntax-semantics interface, language variation. Specific topics I have worked on include: binding, case, complementation, control, clause structure, domains, features, (non-)finiteness, phases, quantifier scope, raising, synactic dependencies (Agree, Merge), tense.
From recent teaching evaluations (Harvard):
"The professor is clearly passionate and her enthusiasm is contagious."
"Prof Wurmbrand is an amazing lecturer, easy but effective homeworks, engaging material."
"Wurmbrand is a wonderful teacher. Very engaging, understanding, and kind; had a clear and organized agenda as well as teaching goals/pedagogy."
