Why speech as a career?
From a young age, I knew that I wanted to follow a career path in which I would be actively involved in interacting with others and helping people. I was immediately drawn to the field of Communication Sciences and Disorders, as I understood the significance of communication and the role it plays in our everyday lives. Speech-Language Pathology allows me to use my passion for working with children and combines that with helping others to develop strong, functional communication skills in order to effectively communicate with those around them.
Special interests:
I enjoy working with early language learners and supporting parents in helping their young children develop understanding and use of their first words!
Hobbies: Going to concerts, listening to Taylor Swift on repeat, hiking, exercising, and spending time outside with family and friends!
