Hello,
I am so glad you're here!
I have been an occupational therapist since 2012 and have specialized in mental health since 2017 (specifically in inpatient psychiatric settings for adolescents and adults).
Additionally, I am a faculty member in a doctoral program for Occupational Therapy students.
My love for my career overflows, and I can't wait to share it with you.
My Story
I graduated from James Madison University in 2012 with a Master in Occupational Therapy, and since then, I've been curious, excited, and grateful for every experience as an OT. After five years of working and traveling, I decided to pursue my doctorate to better support students in academia. I earned my Doctorate in Occupational Therapy in 2019, with my newborn son in my arms. My passion for mental health and holistic care has always guided me, emphasizing the inherent value, purpose, and worth of every individual I encounter. I focus my life on intentional therapeutic rapport, both within my career and in my important roles as a mama, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and community member.
