About Me
Hi! My name is Emma Hilliard, and I am from Crockett County TN. I attended college at the University of Tennessee at Martin (UTM) where I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science with a minor in Psychology. During my time at UTM, I discovered my passion for occupational therapy (OT) and fell in love with the pediatric population as I completed an internship at the Therapy and Learning Center in Jackson, TN. In my free time, I love spending time with friends and family, working as a zookeeper at the TN Safari Park, crafting, and reading a good book!
I am currently a third-year occupational therapy student who just completed level II fieldwork rotations and am about to graduate with my Master of Occupational Therapy degree. My first rotation was at Janna Hacker & Associates in Germantown, TN, where I learned many valuable skills regarding the pediatric community. My second rotation was at Encompass Health West TN Rehab Hospital in Jackson, TN, which was an amazing experience as I have became more interested in working with adults. I am so excited to have completed my final rotations for completion of this program and begin working in the career field I fell in love with. |
