Josie Pappone

Josie Pappone is an undergraduate student at UMass Amherst, finishing up her degree this summer. She was connected to Boston University’s Bilingual Learning Lab through her previous lab affiliation at UMass. This previous lab experience has engendered her interest in exploring the interconnectedness of bilingualism, autism, and language acquisition. After she earns her Bachelor’s in Speech, Language, and Hearing Science and Certificate in Spanish and Health from UMass, she plans to continue research and eventually continue education through a Master’s and/or a PhD program in the Boston area.
