I hold Master's degrees with high honours in English Literature and Linguistics from the University of Ghent, and in Literary Studies from KU Leuven. My research interests lay mainly in the intersection between mental illness and literary narrative. More specifically, I'm interested in the representation of schizophrenia in 20th century English Literature and the nature of psychosis as a narratological phenomenon. Departing from my expertise in narratology and literary studies, I'm especially interested in interdisciplinary projects and research topics.
