For as long as I was a child, I've always wanted to do something that could make a meaningful difference in someone's life. ​ I always knew that somehow, that would involve working with children. In high school, I started volunteering at a summer camp, and that experience confirmed just how much I loved being part of a child's world. It wasn't until college that I discovered speech-language pathology and had that this is it moment. I had found a career where I could work with children, connect with families, and hopefully leave a positive impact along the way. ​ What I didn't realize then was how much those families would impact me, too. Families often come to me during a time filled with questions, worries, and uncertainty about what comes next. Being invited into your family's life during such a vulnerable time is something I consider an incredible privilege. ​ You're trusting me with someone who means everything to you. I don't think I'll ever be able to fully express how grateful I am for that trust. ​ That's a big part of why I created Tiny Sprouts Therapy. I wanted to build a place where I could truly get to know the children and families I work with, celebrate the wins alongside them, and make sure parents feel supported throughout the process. ​ I started this career hoping I could make a difference in someone's life. Somewhere along the way, I realized just how much of a difference every family I work with makes in mine, too.
