Interview with Samantha
Tell us about yourself
My name is Samantha Ariola and I have been a Therapy Aide since January of this year, and I love it! In my downtime, I like hanging out with my family and my two French bulldogs. I love traveling and road trips. I am going to Italy in March and can’t wait!
Why did you become a Therapy Aide?
I became a therapy aide because my dream is to become a pediatric Occupational Therapist, and Team 4 Kids seemed to be the perfect company to help learn the ins and outs of occupational therapy while I am in school.
Why do you think your coworkers nominated you for being festive?
I think my coworkers nominated me for being festive because I decorated the TA hallway for the holidays.
What do you love most about working with TEAM 4 Kids?
I love the supportive atmosphere at TEAM 4 Kids, everyone here is so kind and genuine. Every time I come in for my shift, I am greeted by some amazing coworkers and the best energy ever.
What is your favorite holiday tradition?
My favorite holiday tradition is making hot chocolate with my family and watching Home Alone while building gingerbread houses.
