I'm an SNF Assistant Professor in the Department of Computational Linguistics at the University of Zürich. I lead the Phonetics and Cognitive Science Lab (PaCSci Lab) within the broader Phonetics & Speech Sciences Group.
My research focuses on the phonetics–phonology interface, cross-talker and cross-linguistic phonetic variation, speech prosody, and speech perception. I also occasionally dabble in morphophonology. A recurring theme in my research is the use of large spoken corpora to advance linguistic theory.
Prior to my current position, I was Lecturer in Phonetics and Phonology at the University of York, and a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Linguistics at Northwestern University in the Prosody & Speech Dynamics Lab. I received my PhD in Cognitive Science from Johns Hopkins University and my BA in German and Linguistics from New York University.
