Hello!

About me..​​.
​As a pre-med student at Texas A&M, I was still craving to study languages, literature and linguistics. In one of these courses completely unrelated to my degree, the instructor mentioned that she was a speech-language pathologist, shared a few sentences about her work, and that was it. My new path was set. Later, while choosing a program for my Master's to become an SLP, the Bilingual/Multicultural Specialization offered at the University of Texas seemed to be the perfect way to blend together so many of my passions. I started my career in the Houston-area Spring Independent School District, working exclusively in Spanish with students with communication impairments, enrolled in bilingual education programs. I loved this work, but adventure called our family abroad. I became a 'travelling spouse', touting my household and young children across Europe, changing homes and languages multiple times a year, until we finally put down roots in Singapore. My children spent their childhood there and I enjoyed nearly 7 years of amazing professional growth, thanks to the opportunities in Rainbow Centre, a social service agency supporting individuals with disabilities, where I served as SLP, Head of Department and Head of Clinical Services. Once again, change was our constant, and we made the move to our permanent home in Valencia. I spent our first years here working as Nursery teacher in Cambridge House Community College (its former name)-- an invaluable experience that has forever changed the way I approach play-based therapy. Now, as a private practitioner, each of my personal and professional experiences along the way come together to shape how I assess and treat the communication needs of each client and family.
