Welcome to the 2023-24 school year! I am starting my 12th year in the St. Francis School District. I love working with students at Deer Creek Intermediate and St. Francis High School. I'm also lucky to work with several preschool students and their families! Before coming to St. Francis, I worked for Curative's Birth to Three Program, St. Joe's Outpatient Clinic, Aurora Psychiatric Hospital, and in the West Allis West Milwaukee School District. I came to St. Francis looking for a small, student-centered district, and that's exactly what I have found! My role is to evaluate and provide speech/language services to students with significant delays in one of these areas: receptive/expressive language, social skills, articulation, speech fluency, and voice. During speech therapy, students learn strategies to help improve their vocabulary, word retrieval, listening/reading comprehension, articulation skills, and so much more! Students also learn to become independent thinkers/communicators and to self monitor their speech/language skills! In addition to providing direct services to students, I am available to parents and teachers for consultation regarding all speech related concerns. St. Francis is a beautiful community, and I feel lucky to be a part of it!
