I am a licensed and registered Occupational Therapist, born and raised in Wisconsin. I earned my Bachelors of Science from University of Wisconsin La Crosse in 2022 and continued my journey at Carroll University where I received my Masters of Occupational Therapy.

My passion for working with children began when I landed my very first job at 16 and has only grown stronger over the years. I love helping children build skills through meaningful activities that feel like play, and I’m a firm believer in meeting each child where they are at. To do this effectively, I have learned to rely on patience, flexibility, and strong listening skills to support both the child and their family in a way that aligns with their unique goals and values. I aim to make every session engaging and rooted in real-life relevance and flourish on celebrating all of the little wins along the way. Building trusting, collaborative relationships with families is at the heart of my approach, as I believe this is key to helping children thrive not just in therapy, but at home and in their communities.

Outside of the therapy world, you’ll usually find me running, reading a good book, attending car events, looking for a tasty new restaurant or coffee shop, or spending time with my boyfriend, my spirited Siberian husky, and our sweet kitty.
