Ellie Lefton

As someone who was born and raised in NYC, I grew up constantly hearing a multitude of languages spoken around me. Over time, my observations developed into an interest in the field of linguistics. I have studied French, Spanish, American Sign Language, and a little bit of Yiddish. I plan to continue these studies and learn as many languages as possible.
