Meet Amanda!
September 10, 2025
Hello everyone! My name is Amanda and I am an occupational therapy assistant student from Wright College. I’m beyond excited to spend the next eight weeks at GiGi’s Playhouse Chicago for my Level 2 fieldwork placement, where I’ll serve as a math tutor and lead various groups for adult participants, including GiGi’s Kitchen and Social Skills for Adults.
In my free time, I enjoy creating art and crafts (such as sewing, drawing, painting, and embroidery), playing video games, going to the movies, and listening to all kinds of music. I also enjoy spending time with my family, friends, and my two cats, Kiki and Finn.
I’m looking forward to meeting everyone, so please don’t hesitate to say hello and let’s chat!
