Monte Leister
Song Writer & Musician
Speech-language pathologist Kimberly Bell received her undergraduate degree from California State University Fullerton, Fullerton, California, in 1993 and her Master’s Degree from the University of Redlands, Redlands, California, in 1995. She started SPEECH PATHways a successful pediatric speech-language pathology clinic in Westminster, Maryland in 1999. SPEECH PATHways utilizes creative and unique methods to achieve goals with pediatric clients of all ages. Many of the techniques and programs offered at SPEECH PATHways can be found in only a handful of centers across the country. She is an active member and President of the Maryland Speech-Language Hearing Association. In addition, she is a member of the American Speech-Language Hearing Association and the American Academy of Private Practice in Speech Pathology & Audiology. Kim guest lectures at the local Universities and in the community each year. She is the mother of 3 small children and she enjoys living with her family in Carroll County, Maryland.
In 2006, Kim approached local children’s musician Monte Leister with an idea to make a CD for speech and language enhancement that could be used in speech therapy sessions or at home. The end result was the co-produced The Adventures of Boo! Radley, a fun and engaging CD of original children’s music that augments therapeutic goals by getting kids moving, vocalizing & singing. Monte will have you and your children singing, dancing, clapping, jumping and moving! After studying Jazz performance at Towson State University and recording nine studio projects, to date, with The Jordan Wade band, 5spot, Christian Education Theme songs, and his current Solo Projects, The Adventures of Boo! Radley, and Jump for Jesus, Monte is quickly becoming a permanent fixture in the child and family music industry. Monte currently resides in Maryland with his wife and children, dog, fish, and bearded dragon.
