My passion for working with children began early. In high school, I took several child development classes, worked at my school’s daycare center, and volunteered with an equine-assisted therapy program supporting individuals with disabilities. After completing my undergraduate degree, I worked as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), where I was first introduced to occupational therapy and quickly fell in love with the field.
 

As a pediatric OT, I use a collaborative, family-centered approach, focusing on what matters most to each child and their family. My areas of interest include sensory processing and sensory modulation, emotional regulation, motor skills, executive functioning, and parent coaching. I enjoy incorporating movement, mindfulness, journaling, and sensory-based strategies to support children’s emotional well-being, regulation skills, and independence in everyday life.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our two dogs, doing yoga, reading and listening to audiobooks, cooking and baking, traveling, and staying active outdoors through walking and rollerblading!
