I am currently attending Chapman University to pursue a career in Speech-Language Pathology. The Post-Baccalaureate program will conclude in November and I will begin my Speech Language Pathologist Assistant clinical hours shortly after. I have been fortunate enough to work with a broad-range of ages, including students that are on the spectrum. I presently work at an Early Intervention program in Lawndale, CA. I get to work with the babies (18 months – 3 years old)! I am enjoying every minute and experience I encounter and can’t wait to continue working with kids with speech and language impairments.

I am an LA native who loves mockumentary television shows and silly comedies. I like to hit the gym, read fictional novels and hang out at random coffee shops during my spare time. Feel free to contact me.
