I’ve been a Maître de Conférences (Associate Professor) in English phonetics at Université Paris Cité since 2009.
I initially studied translation, then moved to English studies where I developed a keen interest for linguistics and phonetics. I’ve always enjoyed the most technical aspects of my job: working with instruments (ultrasound imaging, EEG, EGG, etc.), programming and data analysis (Praat, R, Matlab, C#, Python, etc.). I’ve been doing this for 20 years so, although I’ve had no formal training, you could probably call me a data scientist.
