About:

I'm a speech-language pathologist and a PhD student in Hearing and Speech Sciences. My clinical background informs my research interests in sentence processing in children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and in diagnostic and treatment approaches to DLD, particularly in individuals who are multilingual or speak nonmainstream dialects of English.
