      At Ability Plus Therapy, my role was to assist therapists in using equipment, transferring patients, and directing exercises. While employed, I was exposed to many different patients and diagnoses which inspired me to explore and research different diagnoses to better understand patients and treatments. The highlight of this position for me was being able to make an impact on the patients with the addition of creative and fun aspects to exercises.
