MA (Hons) Linguistics & English LanguageUniversity of Edinburgh
Sep 2015 - May 2019Edinburgh, United Kingdom
I graduated from the University of Edinburgh with a first class degree in Linguistics & English Language. With a specialism in sociolinguistics and sociophonetics, my dissertation looked at the previously unstudied topic of the specific accent features of 'third culture kids' in Luxembourg's international school system. In 2019, my linguistic analysis of ITV's very own Lorraine Kelly was also published in Edinburgh's undergraduate sociolinguistics journal, Lifespans & Styles.
