I recently received a PhD in Linguistics from UCLA. My primary areas of interest are phonetics, phonology and typology.

My first name is pronounced [dʒa.nə.vi] in English and [dʒa.n^ɦɐ.ʋi:] in Marathi. Where the stress goes is a topic of contentious debate between me and my parents. You are welcome to choose sides. I prefer [ˌdʒa.nə.ˈvi] . My last name rhymes with the English word ‘marker’ and is pronounced [ˈnaɾ.ˌkəɾ] in Marathi, and with any rhotic of your choosing in English. I use feminine pronouns.

I can be reached at [first initial] [last name] [at] ucla [dot] edu.
