“The impact occupational therapists have on their clients' lives cannot be measured in numbers or statistics. It's about the small victories, the moments of joy, and the feeling of hope that we help to instill.” – Dr. Carrie Ciro, OT
Discover my journey
I am currently studying to be a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant at Santa Ana College. I am passionately dedicated to assisting others and bring a unique perspective to my studies due to being a mother of 7-year-old identical twins with Autism, Hypotonia, and Sensory Processing Disorder. Engaging actively in advocating for disability rights, nurturing relationships, and guiding other parents in supporting their children, I also take on a leadership role in my community to raise awareness and promote inclusivity. Additionally, I am a committed animal welfare advocate, working to protect and better the lives of animals in need. Overarchingly, I see making a positive impact and assisting my community as a core value and purpose in my life.
