Annie received her Doctorate in Occupational Therapy from West Coast University Center for Graduate Studies in Los Angeles and her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Emerson College in Boston, MA. Born in England and raised in Northern California, she initially moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.
Following her own personal journey with her child in the NICU, Annie was inspired to return to school to become an occupational therapist. She is passionate about early intervention as well as maternal health and wellness. Her doctoral capstone focused on developing a program to coach parents and teachers of young children on sensory integration and wellness strategies.
Annie has worked with children of all ages and diverse needs across in-home, in-clinic, and pediatric hospital outpatient settings. Committed to holistic, family-centered care, she blends creativity with evidence-based practice to make each session engaging, foster independence, and build meaningful connections with every child.
She has completed continuing education in The AEIOU Approach to Pediatric Feeding, and is a Certified Neuro Specialist (CNS) in neurological rehabilitation for adults recovering from stroke and brain injury.
In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her husband, two children and their family pets.
