Interview with Haley

Why did you become an Occupational Therapist?

I really struggled to decide what I wanted to do with my career. In college, I bounced between nursing school, elementary education, and English literature before I finally started working in respite care for high school students. That job introduced me to occupational therapy which combined everything I enjoyed into one career!

Why do you think your coworkers nominated you for being inspirational?

Perhaps because I strive to be super positive, friendly, and encouraging everyday with all of my clients and coworkers. I think that’s the best way to create a fun atmosphere and have a good day. I am so honored and appreciative that my coworkers nominated me for this!

What do you love most about working with TEAM 4 Kids?

My coworkers and my clients!

If you had one wish, what would it be?

I would wish for more wishes 😉

Nominations for Haley:
