Kali was born and raised in Fallbrook, CA. She decided to head east to North Carolina for college; earning her Bachelor’s degree in Human Services from Elon University and a Master of Education degree in Communication Disorders from North Carolina Central University. Soon after graduation, Kali and her husband decided to settle back in Fallbrook to raise their family. Since earning her master’s degree, she has gained several years of experience working with children in a variety of settings including: in-home, public school, and private clinic. Through these experiences, she finds joy in the opportunities that allow her to help children improve their functional communication skills. The opportunity to provide therapy in a child’s home while collaborating directly with families has been especially rewarding because it allows therapy to be personalized and functional to implement evidence-based strategies that can be used throughout a child’s day. In her free time, Kali enjoys spending time with her family; especially while at the beach, camping, and cheering on the Padres.
