Let's explore, create, and play together!
I was raised in Salmon, Idaho, a beautiful mountain town near the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness. Growing up in such a scenic area fostered my love for the outdoors, and I spent much of my time exploring, rafting, camping, hiking, and playing sports.
Professionally, I hold a Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology, a Minor in Sign Language Studies, and a Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech and Hearing Association. My experience spans private practice, skilled nursing, and school-based settings.
My passion lies in helping clients discover and develop their unique voice and communication style. I believe in a holistic approach that combines individual interests, strengths, personal goals, and evidence-based practices. My aim is to empower children to challenge themselves, build resilience, and embrace their authentic selves. I'm a strong advocate for incorporating sensory-rich, play-based, and outdoor experiences into therapy.
Outside of work, I continue to enjoy outdoor activities like rafting, camping, hiking, cross-country skiing, and fly fishing with my family.
