Listen Later

On today’s episode, we are joined by Dr. Anusha Sundarrajan (she/her) and Oneida Chi (they/them), two experts in gender-affirming voice care, to explore the transformative journey of voice training. Dr. Sundarrajan, a multilingual speech-language pathologist and assistant professor at San Francisco State University, and Oneida Chi, a first generation Chinese American genderqueer SLP and longtime advocate for trans voice care, share their experiences developing culturally responsive, patient-centered voice therapy.
