"I am a seasoned Speech Language Pathologist with over 25 years of experience primarily in the medical field. I also have experience in public schools and early intervention. I am ready for a new adventure outside of the clinic.

I have a Master's degree in Communication Disorders from Penn State University, and I am licensed to practice in the state of Pennsylvania. My professional experience in the past 15 years has been focused on adults with speech, language, cognitive-communication and swallowing disorders. I have obtained TEFL (Teaching English as Foreign Language) certification and PESL (Pronouncing English as a Second Language), and I'm ready to help others enhance their life circumstances.

I am new to ESL specifically, however I have a great desire to help others who are trying to adjust to this country or become more proficient with English and English pronunciation. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to improve themselves and their situation. Given some guidance, you may be able to make better connections in a job, career, social situations, school or even in your family.

I have spent my career helping people communicate more effectively, usually because they experienced an illness or injury. My patience and knowledge make me ideal for helping others improve their clarity of speech, knowledge and use of vocabulary and grammar, and social communication.

I also have a great interest in helping others who are learning to manage after a concussion. Sometimes people have difficulties with organizing their thoughts or coming up with the words they want after having a concussion. I can help.

I am eager to meet you so you can share with me what you would like to achieve. Let's talk to see if I am the one to help you achieve your goals." less...
