Bio
Hi! My name is Manny (they/them) and I'm a pediatric Occupational Therapist based in Seattle, WA. My current practice areas include speciality practice in aquatic therapy, feeding therapy and community-based OT. I have worked across the lifespan with the early part of my career focused in older adult and rehabilitative settings. While practicing in an adult, outpatient setting I was given the opportunity to take on our pediatric caseload when our other part-time therapist left and thus began my career in pediatrics! I have worked in school-based settings, outpatient SI settings and find myself currently working in a diverse practice that allows me to work with kids of all ages on functional skills across various environments.
