PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
I am actively engaged in professional and scholarly service that supports the advancement and dissemination of evidence-based practice in speech-language pathology. In addition to serving as an editor for Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools (LSHSS), I serve as a consultant on an NIH-funded neuroimaging grant, providing clinical expertise in developmental language disorders, advanced language sample analysis, data management and analysis, and qualitative research methodologies. I regularly present my work at national and international conferences and am an invited reviewer for multiple peer-reviewed academic journals as well as for Plural Publishing. I am also frequently invited to provide guest lectures for undergraduate and graduate courses, including programs offering specialized graduate training supported by U.S. Department of Education grants. Through these activities, I contribute to the translation of research into practice, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the preparation of future clinicians and researchers.
