About Me

I have been a licensed speech language pathologist for over 30 years. I received my Bachelor of Science in Speech and Hearing and my Master of Science in Speech Language Pathology from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I also taught speech pathology classes for five years to undergraduate students. My background in communication has allowed me to work with all age groups and work in many diverse environments, including Early Intervention, Public schools, MRDD, Private practice, Hospitals and Rehabilitation centers. My professional experience allows me to identify strengths and challenges in a student's skillset and adapt my teaching to their best style. I ask students if they are visual learners, auditory learners, or kinesthetic learners. I can can adapt and individualize strategies to help them become more successful. I am currently an instructor for college-level Anatomy, Physiology and Microbiology. I have been a professional tutor in the sciences for the past seven years and started working for Varsity Tutors in 2022. I love to see when that "light-bulb moment" occurs in my students' eyes.
