Melissa Moget

Occupational Therapist

Basic Information: Hi, my name is Melissa Moget! I’m originally from a small town in northwest Iowa. I have two brothers (with one being my twin brother). I received my Bachelor of Science degree from University of Northwestern in St. Paul, MN, where I majored in Psychology and minored in Science. I continued my professional education to receive my Doctorate of Occupational Therapy from Creighton University in Omaha, NE. From a young age, I knew I wanted to pursue a career working with kids, so I am very passionate about being a pediatric occupational therapist! I am excited to call Arizona my new home and experience the warm weather all year around!

Interests and Hobbies: I enjoy doing anything crafty, traveling, baking, going on walks, biking, hiking, watching sports, drinking coffee, and spending time with friends and family.

Favorite Place to Travel: My favorite place to travel is visiting my family back in Iowa. I also hope to travel around Europe someday!

Favorite Quote:“Recognize that every interaction you have is an opportunity to make positive impact on others.” -Shep Hyken

What I Love Most About Working with Children:I love working with children because of their energy, imagination, silliness, and resiliency. I strive to be a positive influence in their lives, and it’s very rewarding to witness and be a part of new learning and growth. I also think it is so fun working with kids as no single day is the same, and they always bring a smile to my face!
