About

As a highly motivated occupational therapist with over 25 years of experience, I have developed a diverse skill set in health, housing, social care, and the private sector. My expertise lies in housing adaptations, functional rehabilitation, special equipment assessments, and vocational rehabilitation. Throughout my career, I have worked collaboratively with a wide range of professionals to ensure optimal outcomes for clients, focusing on clear communication and comprehensive report writing. In my current role as a Private Occupational Therapist, I frequently conduct assessments and set treatment goals to support clients' recovery following accidents, with a particular focus on housing and adaptation needs. Additionally, I provide postural management training to occupational therapists, drawing on my extensive experience in seating and equipment solutions. I am passionate about tailoring my services to meet each client’s unique needs, with the ultimate goal of helping them achieve maximum independence and satisfaction in their daily lives, especially following catastrophic injuries or long-term disabilities.

Best back-end engineers I've ever worked with...​

“I interviewed about a dozen different firms. DevsData LLC is truly exceptional – their backend developers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with a lot of very well-qualified developers, locally in San Francisco, and remotely, so that is not a compliment I offer lightly. I appreciate their depth of knowledge and their ability to get things done quickly. “
