​Andrea Melendez Turcios,
OTA
I am an Occupational Therapy Assistant student at Trinity Washington University, currently completing my Level II Fieldwork rotation. My experience with a low vision disorder has influenced my interest in occupational therapy and my passion for supporting individuals as they work toward regaining independence through individualized, client-centered care.
I enjoy going on walks and spending time with my cat. I look forward to growing professionally and building strong therapeutic relationships with clients.
