Experience

I joined the CSD faculty at the University of Texas at Austin in the fall of 2007 after working three years at Wichita State University as an assistant professor. I received my doctoral degree at Indiana University, Bloomington in 2002. My research areas include speech acoustics, speech perception, and auditory processing.

Research Interests

My research interests include the perception of speech and non-speech complex sounds, for normal-hearing and hearing-impaired listeners, auditory model for speech processing, and speech synthesis and recognition. Recent studies have been focusing on vowel formant discrimination, vowel identification, spectral enhancement, auditory perception with contralateral stimulation, auditory models of speech processing for normal-hearing and hearing-impaired listeners and auditory processing for young children.
