Administrative & Outreach and Occupational Therapy Team
Originally from North Dakota, I actually spent most of my growing up years in Fort Dodge, IA. Inspired by my mother, I decided to enter the therapy world. I’ve been working at the Children’s Center since 2008 and I’ve loved helping kids to reach their full potential. Having some sensory issues of my own also helps me to know how to provide beneficial therapy to our CCT kids! I have an administrative role at CCT as well and enjoy the wide variety of work I get to do at the Center.
I married my husband, Michael, in 2007 and we’ve been living with our 2 dogs, Harvey and Koby, in North Liberty ever since. Michael is currently completing his first year of medical school in Missouri (taking the dogs with him and giving me a little break!), but he comes to IA most weekends to see me and spend time in our air conditioned house. In my free time I like to work out, organize, and spend time with my friends and family- especially my nephew, Rylan. (So cute!)
