Casa Speech

My name is Cassandra Guarneros Rosile and I am a Hispanic business owner in Columbus. I was born in Laredo, TX, and raised in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, Mexico. I moved to the US when I was ten years old and completed my college and Master's education at The Ohio State University and Miami University of Ohio. I am a bilingual speech-language pathologist and I opened my business, Casa Speech, in October 2017. At Casa Speech, we provide speech and occupational therapy services to the pediatric population in Central Ohio in English, Spanish, and Somali. My vision and mission for Casa Speech is to offer families a place where they feel at home. We are a loving, family, and faith-based center dedicated to providing our families with quality therapy services and a strong support system. My therapists and I help families beyond the clinic. We truly care about our patients and their families and we work non-stop to help our patients reach their goals.
