Gabriella Timuscuk OTR/L : Working as an OT in Alaska
In this episode, I welcome Gabriella Timuscuk who is currently practicing as an occupational therapist in Alaska!
Earlier this year, we were able to formally meet and bond during our UNE (University of New England) Alumni gathering during AOTA Conference - which allowed me the opportunity to connect and set up this podcast conversation.
I hope you enjoy the episode :)
