Such an honour to meet Dr Angel Chan and Prof. Shula Chiat today! 3 hours of inspiring conversation (and me trying not to be too starstruck) 🤫

Grateful to Prof. Kamila Polišenská for giving me the chance to dive into Cantonese research so early in my career!

Proud to have presented our work on the Aphasia Quality Improvement Project yesterday at Barts 💬💜

We created therapy packs for rehab support workers to support people with aphasia!

Shnyia, it’s been a joy working with you. We smashed it ✨

Dysphagia Dining Experience with our City St George's SLT Soc 🍲✨ Tasted IDDSI Levels 4 (puréed) and 5 meals from Wiltshire Farm Foods!

...and accidentally turned this into a mini-lecture (sorry first-years!). Our Comms Officer Millie nailed the explanations though! ❤️ #RCSLT #SwallowingAwareness

Too cute 🧶✨ What got me started:
I went from... *embroidery* -> *crochet*

it's me wanting to create something 'out of thin-air' (instead of embellishing things). Then... I... just wanna make everything! 🙈

What kept me going: just as singing = vocal stim, crocheting = ✋🏻 occupied & 🧠 concentrates 😂
