My Story
My journey to becoming a speech language pathologist started with my own childhood as a neurodivergent person and immigrant with communication differences. I struggled to find my own voice, but at the same time developed a passion for studying languages and communication. Now, helping neurodivergent children connect with the world and discover their own voice has become my passion. I love watching children learn and grow, and seeing the impact we make as they become more confident in their communication skills.
My Education
Masters of Arts in Speech & Language Pathology,
Ohio University
Bachelors of Arts in Speech & Hearing Science,
Minor in Linguistics,
The Ohio State University
My Professional Goals
- Continue to grow and develop my skills as a clinician through continuing education and formal trainings.
Blue Bird Day
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.
