Hi! I’m Amanda, a California native (minus one clinical rotation in Idaho). I was born and raised in Fresno but have been a San Diego resident for almost a decade now. I attended SDSU where I earned a BS. in Kinesiology. Following undergrad, I attended the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences to earn my doctorate in occupational therapy. I have always enjoyed working in pediatrics and love spreading the passion for occupational therapy. I neve get tired of explaining what we do! Outside of school, I read (a lot), explore local coffee shops and dining, camp, and care for two mischievous cats.
