Doctor by the Universidade de Santiago de Compostela with the thesis Aproximación á modalidade epistémica en galego o dominio adverbial 2021. Supervised by Dr. Francisco Antonio Cidrás Escáneo.

I study Galician grammar from a corpus linguistics perspective. I am interested in modality and modal markers, syntactic alternations, and the interface between grammar and pragmatics. On these topics I have published journal articles, book chapters and the monograph Revisiting modality: A corpus-based study of epistemic adverbs in Galician (John Benjamins, 2024).
