I'm an Assistant Professor (UD) at the Department of Language, Literature and Communication (TLC) of Utrecht University. My research is embedded within the Utrecht Institute of Linguistics.
Projects:
Time in translation (2017-2021, NWO-Free Competition, with Henriëtte de Swart, 750k)
The semantics and acquisition of referentiality (2014-2017, NWO-VENI, 250k)
Research Profile:
I'm a semanticist specializing in cross-linguistic variation with a keen interest in second language acquisition. My expertise lies in the domains of referentiality and tense/aspect. The methods I use include corpus as well as experimental (offline) methodologies.

Knowledge Utilization:
As a member of the Meesterschapsteam MVT, I'm committed to promoting research at the intersection of language studies (general and applied linguistics, literature and culture) and second language didactics.
