Emily primarily provides speech therapy at the Heuser Hearing Institute outpatient clinic and throughout some of Louisville’s private school community. Emily helps to provide school-based speech and hearing screenings and is also a Kentucky First Steps provider. She maintains her Indiana license to ensure any child in the Kentuckiana area with a communication disorder has an opportunity to receive services. In her spare time, Emily enjoys playing volleyball and exploring new restaurants with her husband and daughter.
