About
Biography
I'm an occupational therapist (OT) specializing in outpatient neurorehabilitation. I am credentialed as a certified brain injury specialist, and I mentor staff in caring for children with cerebral palsy.
I became an OT to help kids be kids, regardless of their health condition. Therapy can be hard work for children with cerebral palsy or brain injury — working together, we try to make it fun! Partnering with kids with neurological conditions and their families is one of the most rewarding parts of my job.
When I'm not at work, I like staying current on the latest research and hiking with my dog.
