About Rachel
Experience: 3 yrs
I'd describe my personality as playful, curious, and supportive. In my spare time, I like to make art, boulder, tide pool, and swing dance. I'm looking for a job that allows me to work with kids and study to be a Pediatric Occupational Therapist. I started working with kids when my childhood home was converted to a preschool! When I moved to get a BA in Psychology I worked as an ABA therapist with autistic youth. Once I graduated, I joined Peace Corps Morocco as a Youth Development Specialist. Some skills I have include my 5+ years experience teaching, love of art, and passion for connecting nature and science to everyday life. My main skill is specializing in children with disabilities. I am studying to become a Pediatric Occupational Therapist and have over 3 years of experience with children with developmental and other disabilities.

Rachel volunteers with me (a pediatric occupational therapist) in my private practice and I always love having her help! She naturally puts all my clients at ease and engaged with them in play with mindfulness and care. She always makes my job easier, I highly recommend her to any family, especially with any children with different needs. Her patience and playfulness is rare!
