We are delighted to welcome Dr. Julia Yi to the M.S.-SLP faculty!
Dr. Yi will be joining us in September as a full time Assistant Professor.

Dr. JULIA YI — Julia earned her Ph.D. in Speech and Hearing Sciences at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, her M.S. in Speech-Language Pathology at Teachers College, Columbia University, and her B.S. in Teaching Students with Speech and Language Disabilities at New York University. Prior to entering the Ph.D. program, she worked as a speech-language pathologist for a decade. Her research interests are guided by her direct work with children and adolescents in urban schools in New York City and Los Angeles and in her private practice that focused on working with families of children with language-based learning disabilities.
Julia’s research focuses on language and literacy, especially as it relates to issues concerning disability, poverty, and race. She is currently working on developing targeted literacy interventions for adolescents with high risk factors, such as those in the juvenile justice or foster care system.
