I absolutely loving working with children and adults with developmental and physical disabilities. I started working with children with autism, cerebral palsy and Down syndrome when I was in high school. I continued working with children and adults with disabilities in college. I was a leisure specialist working with the adults specialized program at Bellingham Parks and Recreation, co-directed a camp for adults with disabilities and worked in therapeutic horse back riding with children. I also spent time in a Recreation Therapy internship in New Jersey working with children and adults with severe and profound disabilities. After college I became a certified Recreation Therapist and worked for Seattle Children's Home, and inpatient mental health facility for youth. I stayed at this facility for a year and a half until I decided to go back to school for physical therapy in efforts to help more people. I currently am attending Franklin Pierce University in the Doctorate of Physical Therapy Program. I love people and my extensive background in working with people of all abilities enables me to be comfortable and confident in care giving. I love the simple joys of life and I believe that all people should experience them regardless of ability.
