Testing,
testing, 1, 2, 3…
Here goes nothing. After years following other bloggers, I have finally decided to start my own. First things first.
I LOVE SPEECH!
Here’s a little background on yours truly. After 5 agonizing years working as a media buyer in NYC, I decided to change my life.. I wanted a career where I could make a difference, not just making someone else money. I signed up for a few courses at my local community college to test the waters and see if I could get myself back into student-mode. My first semester smorgasbord consisted of Nutrition, Phonetics, Intro to Physical Therapy…and yup…you guessed it…..INTRO TO SPEECH LANGUAGE PATHOLOGY. Well, we can all assume what I LOVED!
Then I was off. I took all of my pre-requisite courses wherever I could find them. (Wherever turned out to be FOUR separate colleges). But I got through it, took the GRE and voila, got into graduate school..
Now 3 years later, I am completing my Clinical Fellowship year! I absolutely love my job. I love my students. I find myself not only being a speech and language therapist but a counselor and friend.
This blog will be a tribute to the fact that with hard work, you can do whatever you want! That’s what I tell my students
and it is 100% true.
