Summary

With 15 years of experience as an educator in early childhood education, I am passionate about fostering a love of learning in young children and creating a nurturing environment that supports their growth and development. Throughout my career, I have worked with children from diverse backgrounds and have developed a deep understanding of their unique needs and learning styles. As an experienced educator, I am also skilled in building strong relationships with parents, colleagues, and community members to create a collaborative and supportive learning environment. My years of professional educational experience have supported my hard work and success as a graduate student in communication disorders. I am passionate about helping individuals across a lifespan overcome communication challenges and achieve their full potential. My coursework and clinical experiences have provided me with the skills and knowledge to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of communication disorders. I am dedicated to providing evidence-based interventions that are tailored to each individual's unique needs and goals. As I continue on this career path, I am excited to make a positive impact on the lives of those I work with and contribute to the field of speech-language pathology.
