who or whom

Use who if the word is the subject of the clause and whom if the word is the object of the clause.

1- Monica, who smokes incessantly, is my godmother.
(Who is the subject of the clause; the verb is smokes.)

2- Monica, whom I saw last winter, lives in Tucson.
(Whom is the object of the verb saw.)
