Adriana graduated from Texas A&M University in 2004 with a Bachelor
of Science in Biochemistry. Adriana taught junior high science and elementary
math/science for several years before returning to school to pursue speech-language
pathology. She has appreciated her science background as it applies to
the brain development and medical aspects of speech-language pathology. In May 2016, Adriana graduated from Abilene Christian University with a
Master of Science in Communication Sciences and Disorders. During her
time at ACU, she conducted a review of literature and wrote a research
paper on the topic Factors Influencing Language Development in Bilingual
Children with Cochlear Implants. Adriana attended the Texas Speech-Language-Hearing
conference in March 2016 for additional training in assessment and treatment
of children and adults. During that conference, she also attended a focused
class on assessing and providing treatment for patients with dementia. Adriana enjoys working with both children and adults. Her clinical experience
includes working as a graduate clinician in the school setting, community
clinic for children with hearing loss, inpatient rehab hospital, adult
home health, and in private practice. Her assessment experience includes
assessing and diagnosing children with expressive and receptive language
disorders, hearing impairments, and speech sound disorders. Her treatment
experience with children includes the following: expressive and receptive
language, pragmatic language skills, articulation and speech sound disorders,
deficits associated with autism spectrum disorder, childhood apraxia if
speech, and speech perception and speech and language development following
cochlear implantation. Adriana has evaluated and treated adult clients
who were impacted by strokes, traumatic brain injuries, and various forms
of dementia. Her treatment experience with adults includes cognitive and
linguistic aspects of communication, articulation, voice disorders, and
swallowing disorders. She also attended LSVT LOUD certification and training
