Having studied Translation & Interpreting (English & French) at undergraduate level, and moving on to American Studies for my MA, I am currently pursuing a PhD in British and American contemporary literature. I wrote my BA thesis on the issue of readability in translations of children’s literature and my MA thesis on intersectional narratology and postcolonial literature. Before joining the English Department in 2025, I worked in marketing and in education (teaching English from primary to high school), while also freelancing as translator and interpreter, and, since 2024, speaking examiner for Cambridge Exams with the British Council. My research and interests revolve around mythology, folk and fairytales and their modern adaptations and implications, fantasy, pop-culture, Shakespeare, children’s literature and YA, East-Asian languages and cultures, poetry, music and musicals, animations, TEFL, as well as everything translation and interpreting.
