After 14 years as a speech-language pathologist in private practice and as a regional consultant for PRC in Illinois and Indiana, I pursued an MBA to broaden my understanding of the business side of augmentative/ alternative communication—a field that has driven my career. This led to a transition into a market analyst role at PRC, where I focused on analyzing market dynamics, forming strategic partnerships, and effectively communicating complex insights to varied stakeholders.My career path has included progressive roles that deepened my expertise in product strategy, market development, and team leadership across both PRC and Saltillo product lines. These roles helped me build an extensive knowledge base in AAC technology, customer needs, and the strategic growth required to lead effectively.Now, as COO, I am committed to creating an environment where innovation, inclusivity, and sustainable growth empower our teams to develop world-class AAC solutions that meet the evolving needs of the market.
