Hi, I'm Melissa Clements, and I'll be one of the Speech-Language Pathologists at New Hope.

I graduated from Iowa State University with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education. I received my master’s degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders. I have more than 10 years of experience working with children and their communication needs. I have most recently been an SLP at Johns Creek Elementary.

I am originally from Omaha, NE where I grew up as the youngest of 5 children. I’ve also lived in Phoenix, AZ where I worked at a school for children with autism and gained valuable experience and my love for working with children with communication needs. I have 4 children Olivia (6), Eleanor (5), Fabius (3), and Theodore (1 month old). We also have 2 dogs, Weezy and Lucy and 2 bunnies, Lollipop and Poppy. I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I also enjoy traveling, yoga, and reading.

I am most looking forward to meeting my sweet students and building relationships with each of them and their amazing families.

I received my bachelor’s degree in science and master’s degree in education, both in Speech-Language Pathology. I am originally from Alabama, but moved to Gainesville, Florida (go gators!) soon after. I moved to north Georgia with my family before graduating high school in Dawson County. I enjoy cheering on the Florida Gators during football season, playing card games, and traveling with my family!
