Clinician. I absolutely love my job. I am a Speech-Language Pathologist and Pediatric Feeding Therapist. Feeding is a complex process involving all of the senses, 26 muscles, 6 cranial nerves, & multiple systems.  It’s one of the first ways we connect & nurture our children. It’s also something we do multiple times a day so when it’s not going the way we envisioned, it can cause a lot of stress. 

I am passionate about partnering with families & other professionals to put together the pieces of each unique feeding puzzle. It is truly rewarding to empower parents with tools to help their children & to ultimately enjoy & thrive in the feeding experience. 

 

I provide clinical feeding assessment and intervention for infants & young children in office, in-home in the Philadelphia & South Jersey area & virtual support. I complete swallow imaging through a local hospital as needed.

 

Before transitioning to private practice, I spent nearly 10 years at a pediatric hospital where I was able to provide assessment & intervention for patients with a variety of speech, language, and feeding needs with a specialization in infants & toddlers with Pediatric Feeding Disorder. I received my Masters of Science in Speech-Language Pathology from Hunter College in 2011.

​

Educator. I enjoy speaking at conferences and universities on my biggest passions: pediatric feeding & swallowing & elevating the caregiver experience.

I am a founding board member at Caffeinated Caregivers Advocacy Network & volunteer committee member at Feeding Matters.

Mom. My husband and I are raising 2 young children (very imperfectly).
