I have taught elementary special education for 6 years. My focus was on 5 to 8-year-old children with learning disabilities, developmental delays, and autism. I am currently in my second year of occupational therapy graduate school at Midwestern University. I am interested in continuing to work with children with special needs as I work towards my master's, as I would like to use my OT degree to focus on children with autism.
