I then graduated from the University of Montana with my Master’s in Speech Language Pathology. Currently, I am working at CMMC as an outpatient, acute care, skilled nursing rehab, and home health speech language pathologist.

In my free time I enjoy hunting, fishing, outdoor activities, and playing sports.
