Licensed pediatric occupational therapist in Massachusetts and Connecticut, and owner of Get a Grip Occupational Therapy. I have a vast amount of experience in the human services field, as I was previously employed as a residential director for a non-profit residential agency servicing individuals served by the Department of Disabilities (DDS). I have worked with individuals across the lifespan; however, more recently, I have dedicated my focus to the pediatric population. I have a strong passion for advocating for children of all abilities to access their potential. Prior to Springfield College, I worked at an out-of-district therapeutic private special education school.
