Honored to share my expertise on accent modification and identity in NPR’s “Why Some People Try to Lose Their Accents.” Recording from home, balancing a toddler and dogs, and thinking on the spot was both exciting and challenging. This experience gave me a new appreciation for public radio and the chance to share my work. Check out my NPR interview experience.
