I have a B.Occupational Therapy degree obtained in 1991 in South Africa (University of the Orange Freestate).  My husband and I relocated to the US in 1997.  I have worked in a Hospital setting and in Early Intervention.  My Public school experience includes several states: MA, TN and PA.  The Vanguard School has been my home away from home since 2009. As a Related Service, Occupational Therapy focus on being a support to the teacher and to facilitate students' success and independenc during their day.
