About

Assisting all communicators has been a lifelong mission for the owner of AAC On The Lakeshore. Growing up in Muskegon, loving the beauty and sanctity of this Great Lakes region, Linda Kelley Hartman decided to retire from public school work and return once more, to give something back to the area. Her passion is and always has been to truly make a difference in the communication abilities of those who trust her. Many years of experience in differing settings, including private practice and schools of all age and ability levels, both as a speech pathologist and special education teacher led Linda back to this place ... and this mission.

Linda has also presented on various topics at local and state conferences, such as Council for Exceptional Children, AssistTalkKnow, #Talking AAC, as well as for parent groups, such as the Autism Society of Kent County.
