About Me
Voices of the Silenced
Get to Know me!
I am a dually qualified speech therapist and audiologist. I have acquired experience in working in both hospital and school settings and this provided me with an awareness into the increasing need for speech therapy and audiology. This knowledge and practice inspired the establishment of LAM Speech Therapy & Audiology.
My upbringing wasn’t an easy one. I had to push myself to get educated and become what my parents couldn’t be when they were younger. I am very passionate about research and acquiring a good education to be a better person for myself and those around me, as well as those I yearn to help.
