I have a bachelor's degree in speech-language pathology with a minor in Psychology. I also studied speech-language pathology for several semesters in graduate school. My coursework included classes on typical development, as well as developmental syndromes courses, autism, pediatric feeding and swallowing, children's health and nutrition, children's literature, counseling, and psychology. In addition, I worked as a graduate clinician to provide weekly therapy for clients in the speech and hearing clinic. I really enjoy being able to apply my education to help those with special needs. I am very passionate about my work with children and feel I can be a valuable asset to any family.
