Celebrating our own Kendell Nestoroff

We’re excited to celebrate Kendall Nestoroff this Speech & Language Pathologist Appreciation Day!

Originally from San Diego, Kendall made the move to Utah in 2021—trading sunny beaches for beautiful mountain views. She has been with DSD for three years and is now finishing her second year at Sand Springs, where she continues to make a meaningful impact every day.

This past year has been especially exciting for Kendall! She got engaged to her boyfriend in December 2025 over winter break, and the two have since purchased their first home together. They share their home with their two cats, Cash and Lenny—named after Johnny Cash and Lenny Kravitz, a perfect nod to their shared love of music.

Outside of work, Kendell enjoys going to concerts, thrifting and antiquing, collecting vinyl records, and traveling. If she’s not at home, there’s a good chance you’ll find her browsing Home Depot, Savers, or a local record store.

She’s especially looking forward to a special trip to Ireland this June, where she’ll celebrate her parents’ 30th anniversary with her family. In addition to traveling, Kendell plans to spend her summer tackling home projects and beginning preparations for her 2027 wedding.

A fun fact about Kendall: she met her fiancé while working at Social Axe in Ogden in 2022—and even brought their mobile unit to her engagement party for a full-circle celebration!

We’re so grateful to have Kendall as part of our team. Her dedication, warmth, and passion make a difference in the lives of so many students every day. Happy SLP Appreciation Day, Kendall!
