I am professor in English linguistics and "docent" in general linguistics.
I hold a Ph.D in theoretical linguistics (1999) from the University of Edinburgh. I also hold MA (1993) and BA (1992) degrees in English philology (with second-subject studies in Nordic philology, in journalism and mass communication theory, social psychology and psychology) from the University of Tampere.
I am trained in CPR and have attended a course in fire safety training.
