Scholarly Interests:
My research focuses on audiovisual translation in Francophone countries/regions, namely France and Québec. While I have a particular interest in dubbing, I am also interested in TV formats translation, voice-over translation and subtitling. Over the past few years, I have also shifted some of my research focus towards the (mis)representations of LGBTQ+ and BIPOC characters in audiovisual translation using various French sociologists' theories.

Teaching Statement:

My teaching philosophy is based on communicative and interactive approaches that engage students in meaningful and authentic language use. I design my lessons to suit the needs and interests of my students, using a variety of materials and activities that foster their linguistic and cultural competence.
