Research Overview

My research interests lie broadly in speech variation on the levels of languages, communities, and individuals. I work at the intersection of phonetics, sociolinguistics, and forensic speech science, and am keen on bringing thereotical, practical and methodological insights from different areas to inform the field of forensic phonetics.

My research in forensic speech science addresses questions related to bilingualism and voice identity, with a focus on language mismatch in forensic voice comparison. In the areas of sociolinguistics and laboratory phonology, I work on phonetic accommodation, the sociophonetics of migrant communities, as well as individual and cross-linguistic variation in coarticulatory phenomena.
