Part of Our Mission: Southern University in Baton Rouge Guest Lecturer

Posted by: Carmen N.

 

This past month, our Administrator, Shontai Thomas, was honored with an invitation from her alma mater, Southern University in Baton Rouge, to speak as a guest lecturer. She spoke to communication sciences and disorders students about a few of the many types of disorders associated with traumatic brain injuries as well as complications arising from strokes including embolisms. Shontai also offered fun ideas for pediatric therapy activities that the students may creatively use during their own therapy sessions in the near future. Apart from that, Shontai also focused her attention on entrepreneurship. She spoke about what incited her to begin her own therapy practice and her mission behind it.

Shontai's passion for what she does has motivated her to succeed in more ways than one. She yearns to pass knowledge down to others who share that dream & passion in hopes that they, in turn, will also advocate for those who need our help. Shontai strongly feels that through adding a personal touch everyone can beneift! She continues working with others in the community to soon make an even bigger difference!

Special Appreciation and Recognition given to:
 - Southern University in Baton Rouge
 - Communication Sciences and Disorders Department
 - SPAU260 students
