1 About me
I am a Graduate Assistant / PhD Student in linguistics at the University of Lausanne. I hold a Bachelor in History and Linguistics from the University of Lausanne as well as a Master of Languages in General Linguistics from the University of Uppsala. I have previously been a Research Assistant in history on the INIDUN project. The complete corpus we curated has been published on Zenodo. I have a previous background in IT and communication, during which I worked at EPFL.
My hobbies include genealogy, horse riding, boardgames and TV shows.
Special mention for Nathan Fielder's projects
2 Research
During my education, I became fascinated by nasal Vowels and especially their acquisition. In my master's thesis, I studied whether German native speakers can acquire the acoustical correlates of French nasal vowels, and perceive the difference between them. To trick your non-French speaking friends... /lasasɛ̃syɾsõsɛ̃sysesõsɑ̃sɑ̃sɛsə/ While my PhD project is still in the early stages, I am going to focus once again on French nasal vowels. I have developed WhispGrid to help me in this task, a Whisper based recognition script to automatize Corpus transcription and speaker recognition.
