My focus is on what it takes to have self confidence in today's society as a woman with a physical disability. I hope I can inspire and help individuals by sharing my experiences. I am an Occupational Therapist with a master's in Rehabilitation Counseling. I have worked as a school based OT for the past 15 years and hope to share my expertise with others. I feel that maintaining a balance and holistic approach towards life's challenges is the best way to be productive, happy and successful!

Getting to Know Yourself Through Hobbies!
Our theme for this month is..........Hobbies.....Play/Leisure.........and Adventure!
I have a few questions for you regarding how you view hobbies. It is okay to answer these questions to yourself. Maybe you will want to keep a little notepad or book of answers and thoughts to these questions. If you want to share them personally with me or with everyone else, that is always encouraged too!
1. I have several hobbies that I participate in on a regular basis.
