Speech Language Pathologist, Assistive Technology Instructor, American Sign Language Instructor and Augmentative and Alternative Communication Specialist! I have been working in the school system, supporting students for 12 years. The bulk of my experience comes from working with students who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing, and those who have complex communication needs.
Hybrid Educator! I try to match my skills and personality with each individual student's needs. My aim is always autonomy and agency.
