Ms. Brooke Rounsley
I graduated from Kent State University with my Bachelor of Science degree and Cleveland State University with my Master of Arts degree in Speech-Language Pathology. I am originally from Northeast Ohio, but I have lived in Charlotte, NC since August 2021. Since starting my career as a speech-therapist, I have worked in pediatrics in a variety of settings including a special needs day program, multidisciplinary pediatric clinic, charter school, and a public elementary school. I have a passion for working with the special needs community and have experience working with children who use Augmentative Alternative Communication devices. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, hiking, and reading.

Ms. Cheryl Babiec
I was born at Westover Air Force Base, Chicopee, Massachusetts. My dad was in the Air Force,
and I grew up moving from one military base to another, making many friends along the way. I have
lived in Massachusetts, Okinawa, Florida, Nebraska, and Rhode Island. I have lived in North Carolina for
almost fifteen years. I graduated from the University of Rhode Island with a Bachelor of Science in
Human Development and Family Studies. I took time off to raise my two sons. My interest in Special
Education began after raising a son with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. I have two sons. My older son,
Justin, passed away, and my younger son, Logan is a junior at UNC Charlotte. I worked for Cleveland
County Schools as a substitute cafeteria worker and substitute teacher. When Logan got older, I began
working for èAVƵ. I have worked for èAVƵ for eight years. I have
worked as a cafeteria assistant, an EC bus monitor, and an EC Teacher Assistant. When I am not at work I
enjoy bird feeding (my favorite is the hummingbird), gardening, bike riding, hiking, reading, and doing
embroidery. I also enjoy spending time with my family.
