CV

I am currently an Associate Professor (Maître de Conférences) in Phonetics and Phonology, Second Language Acquisition & Foreign Language Teaching at the Université Paris 8 Vincennes - Saint-Denis. I obtained a PhD in Descriptive Theoretical and Automatic Linguistics (Phonetics & Phonology) at the Université Sorbonne Paris Cité (University of Paris) in 2014 and then joined the Laboratory of Phonetics and Phonology (CNRS & Université Sorbonne Nouvelle) as a postdoctoral research fellow until 2016. I have gained experience in speech annotation in both native and non-native speech, acoustic analysis of prosodic phenomena in Romance languages with rich data, analysis of physiological data (ultrasound), methods for the study of native and non-native perception of intonation, speech manipulation and statistical analysis.

Besides my research & work, I love many other things: Opera (my top singers: Renée Fleming, Anna Netrebko & Juan Diego Flórez), Red 'pétillant' wine of Piemonte's region, Parfums (Acqua di Parma Oud, the best one !) and trying to help people.
