I’ve studied linguistics (Ph.D. 2014), computer science (B.Sc. 2024), and statistics and data science (M.Sc. 2026).
I work as a senior lecturer at the Department of Multilingualism and Foreign Language Education at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland, where I teach courses on second and foreign language learning as well as on quantitative methodology and statistics. I also assist researchers with research design, data analysis, and the interpretation of empirical findings.
Besides my work at the university, I offer courses in quantitative methods and am available for support and consulting to researchers and departments.
Outside work, I enjoy exploring the Swiss countryside, and I play the saxophone and occasionally write songs for Beat Moustache, a ska-pop band that mostly plays original songs in the Bernese dialect.
