\n<\/span>I have lived in the DFW area for over 15 years and was always impressed with the things I heard regarding ACU’s CSD program. When I found out that they were starting a program in Dallas I jumped at the opportunity to be a part of it.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Working with the families of young children who are at risk for or have communication\/speech\/language difficulties is what I love to do as a professional.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>I have worked in the following settings: early intervention; preschool; school; hospital (outpatient and inpatient); private practice; research and academia<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>I present and review concepts in a variety of ways (reading; lecture; discussion; group projects; case studies) so that hopefully I hit each students preferred learning method. I also spend a significant amount of time applying new knowledge to situations that will occur in the real world.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>I strongly believe in the blessing of vocation. I encourage students to explore and consider the ways in which God has created them uniquely to serve others through the field of speech-language pathology.<\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>My favorite restaurant anywhere is anything Mexican.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>Be excited about the interesting and amazing things you will learn during the next two years!<\/span><\/p>\n
