About
I am Giovanni Leo, a PhD candidate in Linguistics with strong experience in data handling, documentation, and international coordination across Ghent University and the University of Salento. My research focuses on the phonetics and prosody of Italian varieties and dialects, and I enjoy turning complex datasets into clear reports and presentations that support scientific collaboration.
Before and alongside my doctoral work, I built customer-facing and organizational skills as a call center operator and supported teaching as a university and language assistant. I combine reliable attention to detail with advanced digital literacy, using tools like R and Python (and phonetic annotation software such as Praat/ELAN) to manage records, analyze data, and prepare accurate academic and professional materials.
