Health, wellness and Occupational Therapy advocate, digital creator, and meaning maker
Thank you, Occupational Therapy Association of California! It was an honor for me to receive the Spirit of OT Award! ๐๐ผ
โฆan award that recognize outstanding contributions, dedication, and/or initiative that exemplify the power of occupation to promote health and well-being and
enrich lives (local, state, regional, national, or international), and inspire others to personal action.
This award is a symbol of all the love, effort, passion, and hardwork I poured in the profession, state association, as well as memories and connections Iโve made in this field these past 7 years (since I was a student during our MOT program in 2018)... From the mentors that guided me and helped me get to where I am today, to my colleagues and select family that support me in this endeavor, and to the students, my mentees, and my clients, who remind me of my whyโฆ Thank you! ๐ฅน
Hope to inspire more students and new grads to see the beauty of our profession, despite all the challenges, we all are aware of. ๐ฅฐ
To my communOT - listen closely to the second part of my thank you speech. ๐
The good news that I was mentioning for the past couple weeks lies in this 5 minute video! Listen to the bio! ๐

A couple weeks ago, I ate a fortune cookie that gave me the fortune aforementioned. ๐ I kept it and taped on my computer screen to remind me everyday to take chances. (Swipe left) ๐
And now, here I am adding a new line to my small business. I present to you, OT apparel! Link in my bio! ๐ค I know my products are heavily OT-focused (coz itโs my major, profession, passion ๐ฅฐ). But I am open to working with our friends in other fields or just design custom products for your friends, family, coworkers, acquaintances, etc... Just DM me! ๐
But anyways... I am personally excited for these because I have been wanting to design this shirt (1st photo) since our first year in OT school and our professor gave us (multiple) hints about this shirt, every time we ask her questions in our neuro class... and the answer is always/mostly โit depends...โ Iโm happy to finally able to create it! ๐คฃ You bet sheโs gonna get a free shirt! Hehe ๐
Also, Iโve received and heard some requests from our male OTs, COTAs, and students for some some designs that are tailored to the 5% (or less, I think) of the population.. So with the help from one of my CI mentors and the communOT, I present to you, simple and minimalistic OT shirt (available in 5 colors)! ๐ค
Finally, OT is indeed a work of heart so (also with the help from one of my CI mentors), I present to you, OT, โWork of Heartโ. It doesnโt have to be Vday to show your love for OT! โค๏ธ
But yeah! Hope you like these designs! If you do, grab one or two or three now from my Etsy shop! ๐ธ Link in my bio!
Btw, ๐ธ thanks to my lil bro for making these awesome product photos happen! Hehe ๐ @ Los Angeles, California

And thanks to those who have been sharing ๐ and support in my OT journey and small business endeavors.. coz you know.. yah girl gotta hustle and not depend solely on student loans and stimulus checks, we couldnโt work at the county parks for a year now (we, part time/recurrent govโt workers got laid off btw due to the pandemic ). ๐
Gotta save for that board exam! ๐
Oh! PSA, .enlightenment has great posts and tips about ๐ฐ saving and finances during grad school!
My fellow OT students (and OTs who used to be students), are you working/did you work during grad school? What are you doing/what did you do?? ๐ธ
