What they teach

I teach pathophysiology, integrative seminars, adult rehabilitation techniques, and wellness.

Clinical practice area

My clinical background includes work in adult rehab across several settings: Acute care, Inpatient Rehab Facilities, Skilled Nursing, and Home Health. I have worked extensively in neuro-rehab with individuals with stroke and traumatic brain injury. I particularly enjoy team-based care.

Notable affiliations

I am a member of AOTA and OTAC and have been an active participant in the CA OT Fieldwork Council. Volunteering with AOTA and collaborating with the fieldwork council has given me insight into the needs of our profession nationwide and expanded my knowledge and network related to OT clinical education.

Selected scholarly highlights

My research has focused on burnout prevention and health and wellbeing for healthcare providers.
