About: I grew up in Asheville, NC and didn't go too far away from home to achieve my Bachelor's of Science in Communication Sciences and Disorders. During my time at Appalachian, I worked with Upward Bound for three years as an RA and mentor to sophomores and juniors in high school who were motivated to explore postsecondary education. After graduating, I went over the state line to obtain my Master's of Science in Speech-Language Pathology at East Tennessee State University. I moved to the coast of NC for a job in an elementary school as a Speech Pathologist.
