Mary has been an occupational therapist for 32 years. She holds a bachelor’s degree in occupational therapy from Utica College of Syracuse University and a master’s degree in health service management from SUNY Polytech Institute, both in Utica, New York. Mary has also completed the “Feed the Peds” Training program and has worked with both children and adults in feeding therapy and oral motor dysfunction. Mary has also worked with individuals of all ages in various settings throughout her career including management, hospitals, acute and subacute rehabilitation, home health care and outpatient physical disabilities. Mary also has extensive experience in the realm of physical fitness, being a certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor, specializing in kettle bell training, weight training, and cycling. In addition, she has been a certified Live Strong instructor, serving cancer survivors on their path to fitness.

Mary’s greatest passion has always been pediatric care, including the areas of sensory integration, feeding as well as the procurement of adaptive equipment. What is especially rewarding every day is seeing the children grow and positively change through such occupational therapy services. There is nothing more rewarding than a child’s excitement and love to be with you and hearing families say daily how occupational therapy has been life changing for the entire family. It is not ever work or a job: there is nothing better than knowing you have made a difference in the life of a child.
