As a speech-language pathologist, I see patients of all ages for a range of disorders related to swallowing, cognition, communication, and augmentative and alternative communication. I have a special interest in multicultural and multilingual services, swallow assessments, motor speech disorders (dysarthria), and providing patient-centered care.

My Passion
I love building rapport with patients and caregivers who see me, and getting to know each of them as we work together. Helping to improve peoples’ quality of life through improved swallow and communication is the most rewarding aspect of my career.
After Hours
I’m originally from Brooten and Alexandria, MN, and lived in France for 10 years. My daughter is half French, and we’re bilingual. Now, we’re happy to make Glencoe our home! In the summer, we enjoy spending time at the lake cabin. We love spending time with our pets, a 3-legged dog and a tuxedo cat. I also enjoy social dancing, such as salsa and ballroom dancing.
