My experience as an Outpatient Rehabilitation Aide at UPMC has equipped me with the skills to assist licensed clinical staff effectively, ensuring patient safety and providing personalized exercise plans tailored to individual needs.
In addition to my clinical experience, I have had the opportunity to teach English in Vietnam and instruct yoga classes in Thailand, which has enhanced my communication skills and cultural competency. My diverse background in education and rehabilitation allows me to connect with individuals from various backgrounds and abilities, fostering an inclusive environment for learning and healing.
