Service Lead for Milton Keynes and Specialist Generalist Speech and Language Therapist, Developing Specialist in Hearing Impairment
Becoming a children’s speech and language therapist was one of the best decisions I ever made. I have always been interested in both arts and sciences and speech and language therapy is the perfect combination; problem solving with out of box thinking. Working with children is inspiring and they amaze me everyday with their ability to keep on learning. Plus, there aren't many jobs you can do wearing a miniature saucepan as a crown!
