Rebecca graduated from Western Michigan University in 2013 with her Master's Degree in Occupational Therapy. She is board certified by NBCOT, is a member of AOTA, and is licensed by the state of Michigan. 


Since graduating, she has worked in the Kalamazoo area and beyond. She has extensive experience with both pediatric and adult populations, having worked in hospitals, outpatient clinics, and internationally with a non-profit in the Dominican Republic. She has also worked with children's wellness programs in the community, starting an adaptive fitness program and running a youth fitness program at a local gym. She collaborates immensely with WMU through research, supervision of clinical students, and support from other pediatric therapists to ensure best practices in OT. Rebecca has a passion for providing evidenced-based, whole-body focused interventions to kids in order to support development over the life span. She specializes in working with complex trauma, feeding disorders, and social skills. She is a trained TBRI Practitioner and is also an SOS-trained Feeding Therapist, as well as additional training in infant development. Further, she has merged her training as an OT with her passion for wellness programs, being certified in Infant Massage, Kids Yoga, and is also a Level I CrossFit Trainer and CrossFit Kids Trainer.


In her free time, Rebecca loves to be outdoors, travel, or simply relax with her husband Luis and her young son (and soon to be other child due in April 2021!). She is a huge foodie and loves finding delicious vegan foods at local restaurants!
