Jennifer Valiente

Hi, 

My name is Jenny Valiente, and I graduated Fall 2022 from UCF with my bachelors in communication sciences and disorders. Throughout this time in school I volunteered at Aphasia House in which I met incredible human beings who have unfortunately suffered from strokes resulting in fluent or non-fluent Aphasia. I also worked at school with children with disabilities and learned so much from them. I was able to help assist in implementing structure, behavior strategies, and creating a bond with these great kids. I then landed a job as an SLPA in which I have absolutely loved my patients and am extremely motivated to assist them reach there speech and language goals. I also do theatre as a hobby, and love connecting with others. I am bilingual as my first language was Spanish. Thank for taking the time to read this.
