Job Shadowing

Summer 2021

During my time at the Pediatric Therapy Services clinic in Lakeland, I was shadowing an occupational therapist and I learned in depth how the job works. Specifically, it was pediatric occupational therapist and I worked with her to look at the learning/exercise plan for each child. I continue shadowing in other occupations and i am perusing a career as a front desk where I can learn more about that specific occupation.

Parental Alienation Research

 

In my ENC 1102 course at UCF, I completed a research paper using both primary and secondary research. This is a mixed-mode project which means I created my own illustrations to portray some of the data. I also created my own comic to introduce the research study by showing the connection I had to this specific topic.
