I have always had a passion for working with children. After graduating with a BA in Psychology and Community Health in 2017 I took some time to figure out what I really wanted to do. I eventually found myself working in a special needs nursery school and was offered an opportunity to sit in on some sessions with a Speech Language Pathologist. From there the rest was history. As of May 2022 I have finished taking pre-requisite courses in communication disorders and I am currently in the process of applying to grad school. Currently I work in a private school with neurodiverse students who are 2e and I am continuing to grow my skills and confidence in this field. I also provide ABA service after school hours and I am currently working on getting my RBT. I am trustworthy, compassionate and intuitive.
