As a third-year Master of Science in Occupational Therapy student at Seton Hall University, I am passionate about empowering individuals of all ages to live meaningful and independent lives. My academic and clinical experiences have deepened my interest in acute care, neurorehabilitation, and sensory integration, while also strengthening my skills in therapeutic communication, client-centered care, and evidence-based practice. Through fieldwork, community outreach, and simulation labs, I have worked with diverse populations, including children with autism spectrum disorder, individuals with cerebral palsy, and older adults. These experiences have honed my ability to assess functional performance, implement creative interventions, and collaborate effectively with interdisciplinary teams. I am especially motivated by opportunities to combine compassion with innovation—whether that’s through designing adaptive activities, promoting health equity, or supporting clients in achieving their goals across environments. I’m currently preparing for my Level II fieldwork and am MoCA-certified, further equipping me to assess and address cognitive needs in clinical practice. Let’s connect—I'm eager to learn from others in the field and contribute to the future of occupational therapy with purpose and dedication.

During this rotation, I had the opportunity to work with patients across medical–surgical, ortho, neuro, and ICU units, allowing me to refine my clinical reasoning and strengthen my ability to quickly adapt in a fast-paced environment. I developed skills in functional evaluation, ADL retraining, discharge planning, documentation, and interdisciplinary collaboration while providing compassionate, evidence-based care. I
