What I'm looking for

I seek a consultative role (sales, utilization review, or clinical consulting) that leverages my clinical expertise, communication skills, and leadership in a collaborative, growth-oriented organization.

I am an adaptable occupational therapist with over a decade of experience across outpatient, inpatient rehab, home health, acute care, and skilled nursing. I have led specialized clinical programs, supervised COTAs, managed ventilator and specialty units, and mastered multiple documentation systems and therapeutic modalities.

My strengths include building strong rapport with patients, physicians, and multidisciplinary teams, translating clinical oversight into consultative expertise, and rapidly learning new protocols and technologies. I am pursuing transition into non-clinical roles such as sales and utilization review where my communication, relationship-building, and clinical knowledge add measurable value.
