The future of OT is global, human-centered, and values-driven. It calls for ethical innovation, workforce well-being, and holistic education that honors diverse lived experiences.

#WFOT is inviting submission of 20–50 word video sharing hopes for the future.

Flyers beware! @Delta breaks wheels on new suitcases and denies claims, calling it normal wear and tear. If you call to discuss (been trying to address since 22nd of December), agents can't assist and hang up on you.

Good luck, flyers! Now how do I fly this back?!

It's official, and I've added another certification! #AIConsultant

This one brings all I've learned over the past few years into action to not just benefit me, but others as well!

OTARG 2025 did not disappoint! Great to be with occupational therapists in Africa to witness ingenuity and innovation. Bonus, sharing knowledge and exploring Tanzania and Zanzibar!

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a dance is worth so much more.

Dance, always, no matter if alone or when others are watching. They not like us!

Shake the world with your dance and illuminate the world with your light.

Love,
Me (you, today and always)

The Giver's Revival was an experience not to be missed, and I also received my Kripalu School of Mindful Outdoor Leadership certificate!

Who is ready to come embrace wellbeing in nature with me?!? 🖐🏾

@LydiaOcasioS That's why I prefer to stand instead of sit. Don't get too comfortable in that chair.

This highlights the disparities as a result of school choice and divestment from public schools.

New: As more families opt for charter and private schools or homeschooling in the wake of the pandemic, cities around the country are shuttering schools. The effects fall hardest on majority-Black schools and special-needs students. https://t.co/QkDpeUWBoe
