A bunch of friends have asked me what the heck Occupational Therapy is. Here’s a music video that tells all. (previously: Lee looking for help getting OT work)

This is very important to me. I’m looking for a job or internship as an Occupational Therapy Aide or Physical Therapy Aide. I’d love to hear from you if you can help. I need it to round out my experience before applying to graduate school. Last year I volunteered at a pediatric occupational therapy clinic […]

With huge help from Megan, and her great friend Rachel, I submitted my application to the Samuel Merritt University Master of Occupational Therapy Program tonight!

This week I finished my last class-work at San Jose State University toward my master’s degree in occupational therapy!

If you have been contributing to a Roth IRA and now you’re going back to school, you’ll want to read this! You can take out the money that you’ve put into the account to pay for higher education and pay no taxes or penalties! I know this works because I did it recently to cover […]

I really enjoyed the research portion of my occupational therapy master’s degree. I’m now a member of  researchgate.net but I can’t figure out what it’s good for! Any thoughts?
