1. I’m looking forward to learning more about feeding and swallowing.
2. I would love the opportunity to be a clinical fellowship supervisor after completing a supervision period in 2021.

I always knew I wanted to work with children and I think human development is fascinating. Communication and interaction with others has always been a special interest of mine. Since becoming a speech therapist, I have loved watching my clients grow and develop to be successful communicators. It gives me great joy to facilitate developmental milestones so key to communication.

I am excited to be a part of a collaborative team working towards common goals!

Blue Bird Day fosters socialization, sensory regulation, and pre-academic learning in children ages 2–7 years in therapeutic rotations that simulate  preschool and kindergarten settings. Our compassionate therapists practice a relationship-based and family-centered approach, provide parent training, and collaborate on goals and individualized intensive treatment plans for your child.

We believe in a collaborative and multi-disciplinary team approach to therapy.  A team of occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, dietitians, developmental therapists, behavioral therapists, physical therapists, and therapeutic assistants are created for each child to ensure child and family are fully supported and the best possible results are achieved.  

Options for individualized, group and virtual therapy sessions are available as well.
