Research
I am a linguist and speech-language pathologist interested in understanding how speech is acquired in both typical and clinical populations, and why developmental speech patterns resolve in some individuals but persist in others. As director of the Biofeedback Intervention Technology for Speech (BITS) Lab, I have overseen multiple studies measuring the efficacy of acoustic and ultrasound biofeedback in the treatment of residual speech sound disorder. Since 2014, I have directed the development of staRt, an iOS app to make biofeedback intervention more widely accessible.
