My life’s work is to provide hope, innovation, unparalleled support, and resources to the aphasia community. I started LIFE Speech Pathology after the sudden passing of my mentor, Bill Connors. He was a pioneer in the field of aphasia treatment and telepractice. No other practice provided innovative treatment and support for chronic aphasia when he passed. With the backing of my family, I started LIFE Speech Pathology, a private practice in Austin, Texas. We see clients nationwide via telepractice.

Living well despite aphasia needs so much more than direct treatment. My mission is to provide a one-stop-shop that can serve the communication needs of both the person with aphasia and their families.

A few months after starting the private practice, I formed another business, LIFE Aphasia Academy®. It is through LAA where I create courses, host the Listen for LIFE Aphasia Podcast, and, coming by the end of 2023, the LIFE Aphasia Academy Community. I am so excited to be able to provide a continuum of care to meet the needs of the aphasia population wherever you are on your journey.
