I'm a dedicated Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist with over 15 years of experience helping children build stronger communication and feeding skills. Throughout my career, I've worked in both clinical and school settings, partnering with families to support children from birth through adolescence - especially those with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Down Syndrome, genetic conditions, and language or feeding difficulties.

My approach is family-centered, evidence-based, and deeply collaborative. I specialize in early intervention, individualized therapy planning, and parent coaching. I believe that progress starts with connection, and I'm committed to creating therapy experiences that are engaging, effective, and empowering for both children and their caregivers.

I hold a Master’s degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders from the University of Texas at Dallas, and I’m certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) with licensure in the state of Kansas. I'm continually expanding my skills through advanced training in SOS Feeding Therapy, Apraxia interventions (DTTC), and Gestalt Language Processing.

In my free time, I like to read, be outside, and spend time with family and friends. Most of all, I enjoy exploring Kansas City with my husband and son.
