Sally Xie

I am a rising senior at Boston University studying Psychology with minors in Biology and Applied Human Development, and I aspire to attend graduate school to obtain my doctorate in clinical psychology. I am particularly interested in studying speech variability in the context of developmental disabilities, bilingualism, and sign language, incorporating the use of neuroimaging to explore underlying neural mechanisms, and I aim to be a researcher who serves underprivileged and underrepresented communities. Currently, I work on the POLO Project transcribing natural language samples from examiner-child interactions using SALT software. In my free time, I like to try new restaurants with friends, binge watch old or new shows, and explore estate museums!
