Dr. Ramandeep Kaur

I’m Dr. Ramandeep Kaur, and for the past 15 plus years I’ve dedicated my journey to finding possibility in what often seems impossible. From helping children discover their voices, to guiding graduates and clinicians toward new opportunities, I believe in creating pathways of hope and progress for every individual I work with.

As a Speech-Language Pathologist, teacher, mentor, and mother, I aim to be a voice of what’s possible in every role I hold.
