In this episode, Michelle is joined by Edgar “Vince” Clark, M. Ed., CCC/SLP, Past President of the GA Speech-Language-Hearing Association, and 2013 Alumni of the Year for the Dewar College of Education and Human Services at Valdosta State University.

Sit back and let the soothing Southern drawl of these two calm your nerves and lift your spirits while they talk about all thangs noses and fiber-optic cameras!
