I am a researcher and educational developer at the Humanities Lab at Lund University. Prior to this, I was a postdoc at the University of Alberta, Canada, that I joined after receiving a double PhD in Linguistics from SESA (European School of Advanced Studies) at the University “Suor Orsola Benincasa” (Napoli-Italy) and Université Stendhal (Grenoble-France).
