Ivy League Language

I have been a school speech-language therapist for five years now and could not imagine doing anything else!! I currently work with general education students in kindergarten through fifth grade; however, I also have experience working in blended and instructional preschool classrooms, autism programs, and instructional grades 2-4. As a school SLP, I have worked in classrooms, in closets, in an old concession stand, in my own office, and from my house during distance learning :) I aim to create activities that are fun, effective, and easy to use no matter where or how you are providing therapy!

I love hands-on, engaging activities that make communication fun, exciting, and rewarding! I LOVE co-teaching with special education teachers and doing therapy that incorporates students' OT/PT goals!

FUN FACTS :) I come from a family of 5 children in which all of the girls are speech-language pathologists :) I have lived in the suburbs of Chicago since 2016, but purchased my first home in 2020! I am engaged to my significant other of 8 years! We were supposed to get married 6 days after the stay-in-place order was issued for COVID-19. After two wedding day changes, my fiance and I are set to get married on May 1, 2021! My fiance and I adopted the furry love of our lives, Scout, in 2017. She is named after Scout from to Kill a Mockingbird, and also my mom who was nicknamed after the character :)
