My Story
I have been fascinated by speech and language production since I was a little girl, when I created an artificial language to communicate secret messages to my three siblings. Since then, a combination of personal, academic, and professional experiences have led me to a career as a pediatric SLP. I have worked as a pediatric speech pathologist with linguistically and culturally diverse populations in the Cicero school district and as an Early Intervention clinician in the city of Chicago the past 2 years. I find being a service provider to families and helping their children to improve their communication to be extremely rewarding.
My Blue Bird Day
I look forward to working with such a caring and client-centered organization!
