"Having started our of high school as a Occupational Therapy Aide, getting my degree to become an Occupational Therapist had to be put off down the road because of a soon to be young and growing family. As my kids grew older and I gained great experience in the field working as an Aide, I made the jump to attending school full-time while working a 24 hour per week schedule on top of it. I am extremely proud that I made it through schooling on the Dean's list each semester while raising my family and working part time through the entire experience. When I think back on the life and work skills I learned through this six years of obtaining my Bachelor's and Master's degrees, I wouldn't go back and change my path to this point of my career for anything."
