I hope to become an Occupational Therapist with a specialty in geriatrics. As I first begin working, I think it would be amazing to travel to jobs around the country until I feel like I am ready to settle down , which is when I will begin working towards becoming a strong, experienced Occupational Therapist. Eventually, my career hopes include being involved in creating a "Senior Center" that has all the possible needs (therapy, nutrition, doctor check-ups, even activity centers) for elderly people in a very convinient system for not only the patient but the caregivers as well.

After I graduate from WSU with a bachelors in Human Development, I hope to attend a professional Occupational Therapy school that is further away from home, so I can start making new adventures. I hope to do lots of internships, job shadows, and volunteer work in my field during all of my years of schooling so I truly feel prepared when my turn finally comes around.

I love animals, playing sports, crafting, boating or fishing on the lakes in Washington and Idaho, snowboarding, making memories with my friends, having family time, riding horses, and many other little things that take up my spare time.
