About me

I got my Bachelor and Master degree at Ghent University (Belgium). After graduating in 2009, I spent 9 months at the Eötvös Loránd University (Hungary), where I did research into speech monitoring during second language production together with Judit Kormos. Following this internship, I was accepted at the RWTH Aachen University (Germany), where I obtained my doctoral degree under the supervision of Iring Koch (title: “Bilingual language control: The effects of sequential predictability on language switching”). After obtaining my doctorate, I was a post-doc at the Aix-Marseille University (France), where together with Jonathan Grainger I further explored the bilingual language control process and the reading process. This was followed by a post-doc at San Diego State University (USA), where I explored the domain generality of language control with bimodal and unimodal bilinguals together with Karen Emmorey and Ardi Roelofs. I am currently a senior research fellow (tenure track) at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Belgium), where my focus is on multilingual language processing.
