I hold a Master of Science in speech pathology from Eastern Illinois University with a certificate of clinical competency from the American Speech Language Hearing Association. I am a licensed speech pathologist in the state of Minnesota and have worked in medical speech pathology for over 40 years. I also have worked with clients with motor speech disorders; oral and laryngeal dysfunction following accidents, illness or surgery; voice disorders; orofacial myofunctional disorders; swallowing problems, and breathing dysfunction. In my years I have developed unique treatment strategies for clients to help them establish their best function. Fun fact about me I like to be known for my “dad jokes” and pottery work.
