About me

Gender Female
Location Mountain View, California, United States
Introduction I'm currently a PhD student in the Department of Linguistics at Stanford University. I've just completed my 2nd year. My work is primarily on (1) US English dialects and (2) ethnic dialect variation in Akan (Twi), spoken in Ghana. This summer I'm traveling to Ghana for the first time with my partner, Jefferson. This blog is about that trip.
