Hi, I’m Jazmine — Accent Trainer and Speech Coach​​​

 

I’m a speech-language pathologist (SLP) and interculturalist dedicated to helping people connect across languages and cultures. I founded Culture Crossroads to help non-native English-speaking professionals strengthen their spoken English while staying true to their cultural identity. My goal is to make accent training an empowering, results-focused experience that builds both clarity and confidence.

​​​

My Background — The Intersection of Language and Culture

Before founding Culture Crossroads, I spent over 15 years in intercultural relations. I've worked with international graduate students, scholars, and professionals from more than 25 countries and linguistic contexts.

​

As a certified SLP I bring over eight years of clinical experience to accent training, while my background as a Foreign Student & Scholar Advisor informs the culturally responsive training I provide.​

​​​

My Approach

I developed Culture Crossroads after seeing talented non-native English speakers face challenges because of accent-related misunderstandings.

​​

Through personalized, evidence-based training, I help clients refine the sounds, rhythm, and flow of American English while honoring their cultural and linguistic identity.​ Each training program is designed to help you sound natural, feel confident, and communicate your best self in English.
