I am so excited to be a part of the Coe team as an Occupational Therapist! I use a neurodiversity-and-gender-affirming, child-led approach to supporting children with building regulation skills and their interests to drive their participation and growth. I am a firm believer that children need to first feel safe before they can learn, putting regulation and sensory processing at the forefront of each session and support strategy. I also seek to find the “Just-Right” challenge for each child, easy enough that they can succeed but challenging enough that they grow in their skills. I love to collaborate with parents in goal setting and their child's needs assessment as I know that parents know their children best.

When not working with children, I can be found outside trying to train for my next race and build the gumption to finally complete my first full marathon. I can also be found taking photos at local music venues or shopping for vinyl or at a coffee shop trying to complete the NYT crossword without looking up any answers.
