Summary

As a Child and Family Development student at SDSU, I have spent over 130 hours as a student intern in various educational settings, and have taken several courses that have helped me to develop a strong understanding of children and families. The skills and knowledge I have gained through various opportunities and experiences will help me to be a competent, empathetic Occupational Therapist.
