I’m a maître d’enseignment et de recherche / Lehr- und Forschungsrat (‘senior lecturer’) at the Department of Multilingualism and Foreign Language Education at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland. In 2024, I obtained a Bachelor’s degree in computer science at the University of Berne (thesis), where I’m currently pursuing a Master’s degree in statistics.
I’m also a saxophonist with Beat Moustache, a ska-pop band that mostly plays original songs in Bernese German, and Pädu & Mätthus belgischer Fanclub, a three-man band (Pädu on guitar/voice, Mätthu on drums/voice, and yours truly as eye-candy and for some saxophonistic and Belgian input) that plays mostly covers.
