'Who' se usa como pronombre relativo sujeto cuando el antecedente es una persona, reemplazando al sujeto de la cláusula relativa.

Aunque tanto el gerundio (-ing) como el infinitivo pueden funcionar como sujeto, el gerundio es el uso más natural y común en inglés contemporáneo.

En el discurso indirecto con verbos introductores en pasado, el presente simple (am) se convierte en pasado simple (was), y el pronombre cambia de 'I' a 'she'.
