In today’s Up + Coming Speechies in the loop episode, we are SO excited to be chatting to Professor Sharynne McLeod. Sharynne is a professor of speech and language acquisition, researcher and advocate for communication rights for all. She specialises in multilingual children’s speech acquisition and children with speech sound disorders. She has made an incredible contribution to our profession, and after learning from her books and research for many years it was an honour to sit down and chat with her. In this episode we talk about Sharynne’s career pathway, her research and incredible experiences, including presenting to the United Nations and her most current projects. This episode was a quick and speedy one, but we absolutely loved hearing about Sharynne's rich experiences and hope you do too! If this is your first time checking us out, hellooo!!!
