Hi! I graduated from Augustana College in 2006 and earned my Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point in 2008.

Over the past 18 years, I’ve worked in a variety of settings: public and private schools, pediatric outpatient clinics, and teletherapy. My passion is helping children build the confidence they need to communicate effectively with the world around them.

My youngest son actually came up with the name Sounds & Smiles, which perfectly captures my mission: providing high-quality therapy while ensuring every child feels valued, supported, and happy.

In my free time, I enjoy community theater, singing, fitness, coffee dates with friends, family time, and taking vacations to someplace warm!
