Biography

Clara graduated from Marquette University with a bachelor's degree in exercise physiology. She continued her education to receive a master's in occupational therapy from North Central College. Prior to becoming an occupational therapist, Clara was a rehab tech at IBJI for nearly four years; this strengthened her passion for the orthopedic field. 

Clara believes that building a trusting relationship with patients is essential to delivering high-quality care. Occupational therapy aligns her core values of promoting well-being, assisting others, and providing empathetic client-centered care. Clara is eager to work with a wide range of patients, helping them achieve greater functional independence and return to the activities they enjoy. 

In her free time, Clara enjoys hiking, yoga, time with family, and discovering new restaurants. She's always looking for new recipes and restaurant recommendations!
