I am a sociolinguist with roots in Spanish literature and media, and English and American Studies, and interests in spoken language corpora, (morpho)syntax, language and dialect contact, processes of language variation and change, and language related to cultural heritage and migration. I wrote my PhD on the use of personal pronouns and progressive aspect in a Belgian Dutch-German-Limburgish contact variety. Since 2021, I am engaged as a postdoctoral researcher in the working group of Prof. Dr. Evelyn Ziegler in the Department of German Linguistics at the University of Duisburg-Essen.
