Learning Science in Clinical Education in Speech-Language Pathology
Current Research Project
The focus of my Culminating Project, the final requirement prior to completing my Doctorate of Speech-Language Pathology, was on the application of learning science in clinical education in the field of speech-language pathology. This mixed-methods study was designed with support from Northwestern faculty member, Stacy Kaplan, Ph.D., and is currently in process.

A Systematic Review of the Treatment of Speech Sound Disorders in Phonology
November 2018
I completed a systematic review that covered the treatment of speech sound disorders in phonology. Specifically, the review asks:
- What are the current approaches to speech sound disorders in phonology?
- Which interventions are the most effective for treating these disorders?
- When selecting targets for treatment, what methods are proven to be effective?
I presented a poster with the results of this review at the ASHA Convention in Boston in November of 2018.
