Transforming Challenges Into Compassionate Care: A Personal Journey Toward OT
After going through two heart surgeries in my early 20s, I experienced firsthand how meaningful it is to regain independence and return to daily life. That journey inspired me to become an occupational therapist so I can help others overcome challenges and live their life to the fullest.
Mount Union: The Perfect Fit for My OT Journey
I chose Mount Union’s MSOT program because I completed my undergraduate degree here and experienced a supportive community and strong academic foundation. The hybrid format also stood out to me, offering a perfect balance of flexibility and hands-on learning that sets Mount Union apart from other programs I considered.
