Starting March 2026 I am on maternity leave

I’m a researcher in developmental psycholinguistics. I’ve bounced all over the world since I started my PhD in Göttingen, Germany in 2010, but I’ve finally found my home back where I started: in 2026 I joined the Seminar for English Philology a the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen as a Researcher and Lecturer. You can read a brief summary of what I’ve worked on along the way under the About Me tab. For a quick summary of my curriculum vitae, go to CV. You can find more about my current and past research projects under the Research tab. I’ve taught several different classes in Linguistics and Psychology, you can check out some of my approaches under the Teaching tab. I’ve also been covered in the media a few times and written a few blog posts, which you can read under the Media tab. Since 2023, I’ve been the Media Coordinator for the IASCL (International Association for the Study of Child Language), managing their website, social media, and general technical needs.

I’ve put together several tutorials for creating experiments (including online experiments!) in Open Sesame and for analyzing Eye-tracking and EEG data. You’ll find these tutorials under the Tutorials drop-down menu.
