More About Me

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Communication Disorders and Sciences at Rush University.

My areas of clinical and research interest include caregivers of children who stutter and factors that may contribute to early stuttering; technologies and methods to improve the efficiency and impact of speech-language research; and support programs for people who stutter.

I am a licensed speech-language pathologist with many years of experience working with children who stutter, and a long association with SAY: The Stuttering Association for the Young. I integrate several different therapy approaches to support client goals for communication and quality of life through self-acceptance and growth towards individual goals.

My other interests and hobbies include:

• reading a lot (fiction and non-fiction)
• listening to music (classical, indie rock, and everything in between)
• running
• most geek culture (if it’s sci-fi or fantasy, I’ve probably watched it, read it, or rolled dice for it)
