Claire Wofford

Biography

I joined the Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders as an assistant professor in August of 2019, but I am no stranger to WCU having completed my masters training here in Cullowhee. Before rejoining WCU, I pursued a doctoral degree at Florida State University and worked as a bilingual speech-language pathologist serving Spanish-speaking families in home- and school-based contexts.
