Damary Valadez M.S., CCC-SLP
Hello! My name is Damary Valadez, and I am a bilingual Speech-Language Pathologist. I'm so excited to be working with Spanish-speaking families and children to support their speech and language needs! A little bit about me: My family is from Mexico, and I grew up in Franklin, TN. I love concerts and I enjoy traveling to new places! I graduated with a Master's degree in Speech and Hearing Science from Tennessee State University in May 2024. I'm looking forward to helping children strengthen their communication skills in both Spanish and English!
