I have found a love for working with children with disabilities. I am currently a sophomore at the University majoring in Rehabilitation and Human Services hoping to go on to get my masters in occupational therapy. I have a few years of experience as a PCA working with a children ages 10 and 21. I am also employed while away at college as a Direct Support Professional (DSP) and work with elderly who are disabled in their apartments providing care. I have also done a lot of observation work in occupational therapy settings working with all ages and a wide range of disabilities. I love to be busy and do fun activities including art projects and love spending time being active like going to the park or playing sports.
