I grew up in a small town in Southern Illinois and moved to Morganfield in January 2024. I attended Lincoln Land Community College’s Occupational Therapy Assistant Program and graduated in December 2023 with an associates degree in Applied Science. While in school, I worked as a Registered Behavior Technician and assisted children ages 3-18 with the acquisition of function life skills.

As an Occupational Therapy Assistant, I collaborate with the Occupational Therapist in order to implement the plan of care. My goal is to help our pediatric patients be able to interact with the world similarly to those at their age.

I love working for EPT because of the amazing mentors that I have to learn various skills from. The environment is something I’ve never experienced; everyone is also so positive and willing to problem-solve any issues you may be having.

When I am not working, I enjoy being with my friends and family and playing various card games. I also like to be with my dogs when I travel back home. When the weather is warmer, I enjoy a trip to the hiking trails.

“This is the best place for physical therapy! They really helped me and were kind and patient. I even signed up for the workout classes and I love them too! Everyone’s so supportive and its really awesome to go somewhere where they actually take the time to know you.”

“I think everyone is professional and caring. They are always cheerful and most of all helpful. They show an interest in you as a person, as well as a patient. I recommend them highly to my friends who need physical therapy.”
