    Do you need engaging and easily digestible content for the uninformed parent, healthcare, or education professional? Let me help you! I’m an expert in the science of communication. Through my master's in communication sciences and disorders, I developed a deep understanding of how we use language to convey a specific message. I’ve spent extensive time in early childhood and elementary special education, honing my skills in creating medical reports and educational content that is informative and clear for varying audiences. Your business deserves content created by a communication specialist. So what are you waiting for? Speech pathologists are a jack of all trades. We work with individuals from birth to death with varying medical diagnoses, and the professionals we work with change daily. I’ve learned to effectively communicate with healthcare workers, education professionals, and family members, providing information to varying levels of experts and creating buy-in for various forms of content. As someone who’s worked in healthcare and public schools, my ultimate goal is to help people. There’s nothing better than helping a child learn a new skill or an adult conquer a goal on their road to recovery. If your business needs content that will help people, I would love to contribute to your mission. How can I help YOU create content that speaks to your desired audience?
