Karim Machado-Aman

As a Speech Language Pathologist, Ala is a compassionate person who goes above and beyond what other's limitations are for people they are helping. Having been a good friend of mine for some years, she always poses in the most delightful of ways, and this painting was no exception. There is alot that goes into being an SLP, as evident through any helping and kind gestures. However stressed or down, the joy Ala brings to others is truly inspirational.
