About

Areas of Specialization: I have a strong interest in working with adults with acquired neurogenic communication disorders, particularly individuals recovering from stroke.

Research Interests: My research interests include psycholinguistics, dysphagia, and neurogenic communication disorders. I am also interested in the prevalence of hearing and communication disorders among incarcerated populations and the implications of these disorders for rehabilitation and advocacy. I look forward to further developing and refining my research interests throughout my graduate studies.
