Hi! I’m Ashley, a licensed pediatric speech-language pathologist (CCC-SLP) with extensive experience supporting children and young adults with diverse communication and language needs. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals across a wide range of disabilities and diagnoses, always grounded in the belief that every person deserves access to effective communication and to be fully understood.
I’m passionate about helping every child find their voice—whether through speech, technology, or a combination of tools—and I’m committed to promoting autonomy, inclusion, and high expectations for every learner.
In addition to my clinical work, I serve as a clinical educator at St. Xavier University, mentoring and supporting graduate student clinicians as they develop their skills. I’m also a board-certified member of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and have had the privilege of sharing my expertise as a national and international speaker, contributed to articles and podcasts, and enjoy sharing practical, evidence-based strategies for implementing AAC in meaningful and engaging ways.
As a lifelong learner, I find that teaching, collaborating, and coaching are some of the best ways to grow—both as a clinician and as an advocate for effective, child-centered communication supports.
