"Danae is innovative, curious, and she challenges the field of linguistics by questioning old approaches and by bringing new ideas and solutions. She helps disentangle difficult questions as if it were something easy to do! She is passionate, trustworthy, highly competent, and she performs well in interdisciplinary research projects. Danae has published relevant and innovative articles on under-researched topics that brought new views to long-established approaches and methods. She is, without a doubt, an inspiration for the field of linguistics."
"Danae's teaching was energetic, unconventional and yet precise, knowledgeable, well-structured. As my thesis supervisor, she helped me make my work a little more like that, too, with concise, regular feedback and a constantly open mind. In the following years, when I was applying to MA programs and eventually PhD positions, Danae became one of my main mentors, who always generously shared her insight on the academic system and university career trajectories. A teacher and mentor of Danae's caliber is hard to come by and yet central to the forging of (academic) careers, and I would recommend her for pertinent positions in a heartbeat."

With her cross-cultural expertise and deep understanding of how language works, she will surely be able to help you meet your communication goals."
