Cassidy earned both her Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology and Bachelor’s degree in Communication Sciences & Disorders from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. During her graduate studies, she served as a research assistant, exploring perspectives of AAC caregiver coaching for children with autism. She has developed a wide range of pediatric clinical experience across early childhood, elementary, and outpatient settings, including assessment and treatment of language disorders, speech sound disorders, fluency, social communication, and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC).
Cassidy is passionate about working with children of all ages and abilities, including those who use alternative forms of communication, such as sign language and AAC. She strives to foster an inclusive environment and build strong connections with each child to promote meaningful therapeutic outcomes. Cassidy believes that individualized care, meaningful relationships, and collaboration with families are key to helping children reach their communication goals and thrive in their everyday lives.
Outside of work, Cassidy enjoys Pilates, baking, crafting, and spending time with friends and family.
