Research
I’m interested in phonetics, phonology, neurolinguistics, psycholinguistics, and sociolinguistics.
In particular, I’m interested in the sociophonetics of queer speakers, more specifically, what phonetic differences can be perceived between sexualities in different languages and whether or not they are language specific.
Lately, I’ve been working on studying differences in Queer Spanish monolingual speakers and plan on expanding that research to study bilingual speakers to determine whether English has an influence on the phonetic cues associated with Queer Spanish.
