Kendra is doing her undergraduate studies at Central Michigan University. Her major is in Communication Sciences and Disorders and has a minor in Gerontology.  Having an interest in both ends of the age spectrum, Kendra has had many experiences working with children as a camp counselor, a childcare provider at a church, and a babysitter for multiple families.  She has also worked as a tutor in various subjects for children ranging from second to tenth grade, and as a volunteer/event coordinator for free kids events at a local school.  After graduation, Kendra plans to pursue a master's degree in speech-language pathology and hopes to eventually work in a hospital or school setting.  Because of her special interest in children with ASD, Kendra was very excited to join the Lingo Lab. She sees it as an opportunity to learn more about Autism Spectrum Disorders and is excited to apply what she learns here to her future career as an SLP.
