This is my fifth year as a Speech-Language Pathologist and my fifth year with LFCS. In grad school, I worked several other places. I have worked with kids as young as 18 months to adults in their 90s.

I was born and raised in San Diego! I moved away for college but came back to the city I know best where all my family is!

I am getting married to my fiancé, Bryan, whenever this social distancing is done!

This is my first year as a Speech-Language Pathologist for Literacy First Charter Schools. I have worked primarily with children from preschool age up to seniors in high school with various speech and language difficulties.

I am originally born and raised in Hawaii! Despite my "paradise" homeland, I moved to San Diego for college and fell in love with the city and its people. I won't be leaving San Diego anytime soon!

Linguistics is my passion; I could talk about the intricacies of language all day!
