A new speech pathologist begins her career
This morning I met up with Elissa Shand who has just graduated as a speech pathologist from the University of Newcastle. In a few weeks she will begin her first job as a speech pathologist at Therapy ACT working in early intervention. Elissa worked with Hannah Wilkin and I to collect data on our talking about talking project in 2012. Based on her previous work with me I am sure that Elissa will be a wonderful colleague and an excellent therapist as she works with children and families in her new job. Best wishes Elissa.
