Introduction
I'm a research fellow at the Belgian National Fund for Scientific Research (F.R.S.-FNRS) and a PhD candidate in literary studies at the ULiège and KU Leuven (joint degree). I have also been a visiting scholar at the University of Texas at Austin (fall 2022) and the Ohio State University (spring 2023) in the United States. I mainly work and have published at the intersection of the fields of American literary studies, environmental humanities, and rhetorical narratology.
