That "Traveler" OT

Intro - My name is Meghan.   I am an occupational therapist and a certified athletic trainer, although right now I am focusing on my OT while I am living the life of a gypsy. I am a twenty something year old who has   moved somewhere between 16-20 times (you lose track every now and again).  As of right now I stick with a job for 13-26 weeks.  When I graduated school I had a plan that I wanted to live in 4 different states in 2 years.  Sad story... I have only lived in 3 and my two years is up in a little over a month (CRAZY! I swear, I just graduated!)  Life as a traveler can be stressful, lonely, wonderful, liberating, and has taught me so much from so many different types of people.  I may not always get to work with my favorite population, but I strongly feel that I am a very well rounded therapist from getting exposed to so much.

I got my B.S. in Athletic Training from the University of North Fl and I got my Masters in OT from the University of St. Augustine. I was a competitive swimmer through my freshman year in college. And "home" is and always will be, Chicago :)

That's all for now.  I will start posting more in depth and random things as time goes on to give you more insight into life as a gypsy, why I chose it, perks/disappointments and will be more than happy to answer and random questions as they come.
