About me
Welcome, Bienvenue, Welkom, Willkomen!
I am a 2nd year ELLIS PhD student supervised by Prof. Iryna Gurevych at the UKP Lab, TU Darmstadt and co-supervised by Prof. Marie-Francine Moens and Prof. Tinne Tuytelaars at KU Leuven.
I am broadly interested in applications of natural language processing for computational social science and misinformation detection. My current research project involves facilitating the work of professional fact-checkers to verify multimodal misinformation.
I am currently based at KU Leuven in Belgium.

Miscellaneous
I come from Waterloo. Yes, the one where the famous French emperor was defeated. Come see one of the yearly reenactements of the battle and discover the beautiful nature of my home region Wallonia and the vibrant culture of Belgium’s capital: Brussels.
I keep a reading list here.
In my free time, I enjoy cycling, hiking, and playing board games.
