I became an Occupational Therapist because…

“I wanted to be able to help those who were unable to help themselves. I believe that people will become more independent as they regain their functional ability.”

What’s most exciting about my job?

“I love helping people regain functional independence. Meeting different people all of the time keeps my job exciting and always interesting.”

Interests

“I like reading and spending time with my children. I also enjoy water skiing, camping, and I love the ocean and beaches.”
