Biography:

I enjoy doing research, spending time with family and friends, cooking, and watching a few episodes of "Columbo". I also am dedicated to increasing evidence-based practice in the field on Speech-Language Pathology so that the services we offer can withstand the questions and possible critics that exist.



I am interested in researching the area of langauge disorders in schoolage children. It is my hope to provide information about the outcomes of treatment for this population.



I am also interested in literacy development in children and hope to complete research in this area as well.

Future Interests:

Not available.

The language and culture of my heritage is passed on to me orally. it's a different way off learning than how I am taught at school. How do I keep my traditional culture alive while learning to read and being immersed in the majority culture?

Reading is the core of learning and staying in school . improving reading skills with young Aboriginal children can open up the doors to future prospects.
