SWAG视频 Me
I am an assistant professor in the Doctor of Occupational Therapy program. I am a member of the American Occupational Therapy Association and the North Dakota Occupational Therapy Association where I have experience advocating and testifying on behalf of OT legislation and practice issues within the state of North Dakota. I have practiced primarily in the area of adult physical rehabilitation, with a specific focus on those living with neurological conditions. In addition, I bring a breadth of clinical experience having worked as a director of rehabilitation for interdisciplinary teams.
Why I鈥檓 At MaryTo put it simply, the University of Mary feels like home to me. With my vast array of experience in the healthcare field, I know there are many challenges our students will encounter. The University of Mary's mission and vision allows me to bridge the connection for students: the connection between having a competent knowledge foundation and being morally courageous in a constantly changing health care field.
Expertise
In the role of assistant professor in the Doctoral of Occupational Therapy Program, I teach courses related to adult practice, delivery of management, administration and leadership, neurological conditions, and clinical conditions. I also assist with community fieldwork experiences, interprofessional health care, and supervising the pro-bono clinic. My research interests include working with individuals who are living with a brain injury and moral injury from working during the COVID-19 pandemic.
