I have been an OT for 25+ years. I have coached various sports including gymnastics, basketball and volleyball. Outdoor activities are my passion- gotta stay active and keep moving !! Of course as an OT, I love crafts and tabletop activities to improve upper extremity function especially hand function. As a provider, it is important for me to find out what motivates each person to participate more in LIFE !!! Mindfulness is important to me and I LOVE to share ideas on this topic !!!

    Wendy has a positive attitude and is a top quality caregiver due to her experience as an OT. She provided care for my husband during rehab, cancer treatment and later during hospice. Thanks to Wendy, my husband maintained a good quality of life, focusing on his physical, mental, social and spiritual well being. I had peace of mind whenever he was with Wendy. If you are considering Wendy, I would trust her with any caregiving needs you might have.
