About me
I’m a speech-language pathologist helping adults and older adults improve their speech, language and cognitive skills after a neurological diagnosis. Whether you’re recovering from a stroke, managing Parkinson’s disease, or healing from a concussion or brain injury, I’m here to support you with personalized, functional strategies that make a real difference in your daily life.
Before joining 博彩网站’s Outpatient Rehabilitation Services, I worked in skilled nursing facilities and home health, helping patients regain communication and cognitive abilities in different stages of recovery. I also have a special interest in working with bilingual individuals with aphasia. I’ve completed advanced training through the Parkinson’s Foundation to better support patients with Parkinson’s-related speech and language changes.
My goal is to help you regain confidence in the tasks that matter most—whether having a conversation with family, staying independent at work, or simply feeling understood. We’ll work together to find practical tools and techniques that fit your everyday life.
Outside work, I love spending time with my family, heading to the coast and diving into a good book. I also make pottery at a local studio and have recently taken up surfing—still working on braving those cold Oregon waters!
I look forward to working with you and helping you find success in your recovery.
