I am an Associate-Professor in education at the University of Luxembourg, working at the Institute for Research on Multilingualism. I am a sociolinguist by training, but I engage in transdisciplinary research (drawing from anthropology, sociology, sociocultural psychology, social semiotics or the history of sciences). Within this transdisciplinary framework, I inquire into questions related to work, learning, language and education. I find that writing, research and teaching offer me an interesting lens to explore and understand various aspects of social life and social relations. Methodologically, I am especially interested in using nexus analysis, ethnography, and multimodal discourse analytical tools to work out stakes in the important debates of our times. These include for example:
- Epistemology and methodology: What are the conditions for an inter/transdisciplinary dialogue? How do we work across values and methods in order to make research with a societal impact?
- Multilingualism and migration: What does it mean to teach, learn, work or live in conditions of heightened diversity and mobility? What are conditions for more just and convivial interactions in higher education, primary school or vocational education?
- Work: What are changing discourses in/around/about work and training? What are new meanings of work in the current context of technological development? What are relations between language, vocational education and (un)employment?

Academic career
I started my studies with a BA degree in romance philology and got interested in Latin-American Literature. I also received a Teaching Accreditation for secondary school from the University of Louvain (Belgium).
In 1993, I did a semester abroad at University College Cork (Ireland), studying French literature and linguistics.
In 1997 I obtained a MSc. in Computational Linguistics and a Certificate in Translation from Georgetown University (USA, Washington DC) where I also later obtained my PhD in Sociolinguistics (2003) under the supervision of Ron Scollon who has been highly influential in my work.
In 2003-2004, I was the recipient of a Francqui Foundation post-doctoral fellowship and worked at the Research Center for Crisis and Conflict Management at the Faculty of Economics, Social Sciences and Management of the University of Namur(Belgium).
From 2004 to 2010, I held the research position of ‘Maître-Assistant’ at the Faculty of Psychology and Education of the University of Geneva, in the sector on adult education and learning, working on a FNR-funded project on interactions in vocational education and training (http://www.unige.ch/fapse/interaction-formation/). I also taught a course on Multimodality at the University of Neuchâtel.
In 2010, I joined the Faculty of Language and Literature, Humanities, Arts and Education at the University of Luxembourg, where I added research on multilingualism, mobility and multilingual education to my previous interests
Invited professorships
I have been invited as a guest professor at the University of Thammassat (Bangkok, Thailand) in July 2014 and the University of Strasbourg (France) in October 2015, to talk about Mediated Discourse Analysis, Ethnography, Diversity, Critical Pedagogy and Multilingualism in Luxembourg (in Higher Education and in primary schools).
