Hello! I am Abby. I am a speech-language pathologist with a passion for the hard work of play. I believe access to communication is a human right and value all forms of communication equally. It is my job to meet a child where they are, join them in their play, and provide support for their communication development. I love working with children and collaborating with their families.
I completed my master’s degree at Eastern Michigan University. Over the last several years, I have worked in early intervention and public schools with preschoolers through young adults. I am nationally certified and licensed in the state of MI.
At home, I have a husband, child, and 3 cats (never meant to have 3!). We love to spend time outdoors hiking, exploring, and adventuring whether it is a national park or our yard.
Special Interest Areas:
-Alternative and Augmentative Communication
-Early childhood language
-Narrative language development
-Providing affirming services for all abilities

Hi! I am Makenzie, a passionate and dedicated speech-language pathologist committed to helping children of all ages and walks of life to develop and strengthen their communication skills needed to thrive. I enjoy creating a safe and fun environment within my sessions, in order to connect and build a trusting relationship with my clients and their families. I believe that within this safe and trusted space, children are able to feel seen, heard, and supported as they learn and work to enhance their individual speech and language skills. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences from San Diego State University and then went on to complete my Master’s program in Speech-language Pathology at St. Ambrose University in Davenport, IA in May 2022.
Some of my areas of special interest are:
-early childhood language
-articulation
-phonological disorders.
In my free time, I enjoy traveling, going for walks, playing and snuggling with my dog Rubie, listening to a good podcast/audiobook, and spending lots of quality time with my friends and family.
