Her 2020 comic The Contradictions (Drawn & Quarterly, Montreal) is a fictionalized account of studying abroad in Paris;[4] the work was described as "a masterpiece" by Alison Bechdel.[5]
In 2019, she won the Eisner Award for Best Webcomic[6] for The Contradictions and a Scott Moncrieff Prize for her translation of Pretending Is Lying by Dominique Goblet.[7]
