I'm an occupational therapist (OT) interested in developmental pediatric occupational therapy. I strive to help children overcome obstacles, celebrate their achievements and thrive in their everyday environments, regardless of their diagnosis. I believe parents have the most intimate knowledge of their children's needs and behaviors, making them invaluable partners in occupational therapy treatment.

The holistic approach of occupational therapy drew me to this line of work. Holistic care recognizes the relationship between a child's physical, social and emotional well-being. I believe that care should focus not just on the challenges but also on each child's strengths to create a positive, empowering environment that fosters independence and self-esteem.

I'm also a divisional floater trained in inpatient and outpatient therapy. This training has allowed me to gain knowledge and experience in many different settings and patient populations, broadening my passion for helping all kinds of children.

In my free time, I love trying new restaurants and coffee shops, exploring Cincinnati and traveling back home to Louisville, KY, to see my family.
