Hobbies

Hi! I am particularly passionate about developmental disabilities and learning disabilities in a school and educational setting. I wish to pursue Masters level work in Speech Pathology in order to help children on the autism spectrum find their voice (whether that be verbal language, written language, sign language, or technology assisted communication). Academically, I enjoy psychology, human development, neuroscience, history, sociology, and writing. I love to swim, bike, play tennis, explore nature preserves, write, read, eat Italian food, watch netflix, play video games (mainly nintendo), play with dogs, meet new people, and try new places/activities with my friends.
