I am currently a postdoctoral fellow at CARE. I received my PhD from the University of Brussels (ULB) where I studied social attention and early expressive language in young minimally verbal autistic children using eye-tracking and experimental linguistics methods. I also collaborated on projects focusing on the early language development of infants at high likelihood of developing autism. At CARE, I plan to investigate echolalia in autism using fNIRS and developmental psycholinguistic approaches.
Outside of the lab, I enjoy swimming, traveling around the world, and all things outdoors!
