I received both my Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees in Speech Pathology from West Virginia University in Morgantown, West Virginia. Upon receiving my masters degree in December 1998, I relocated from the northern panhandle of West Virginia, to Frederick, Maryland.  I have been employed with Frederick County Public Schools and have been working at Glade Elementary School since the Fall of 1999.  I am nationally certified for speech/language, which is the Certificate of Clinical Competence through the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA).
