Create a compelling personal statement, and please answer the question fully: The Personal Essay should address why I selected occupational therapy (OT) as a career and how this degree relates to my immediate and long-term professional goals. I am invited to share how my lived experiences (e.g., personal, professional, cultural, etc.) have influenced my interest in pursuing OT. This essay is an important part of my application and allows me to clearly and effectively express myself. Some important background information about me include: ● My name is Yousef Rashad ● I have been involved in Pre Physical Therapy my whole life ● I worked with Physical Therapist’s for the last 5 years, where I witnessed cases that overlap with OT ● Never knew about OT other than the orthopedic aspect ● Witnessed the importance of OT when seeing the lack of neurological rehabilitation while visiting family back home in Egypt ● From there I researched more about OT ● Found a new passion for OT, which led me to this point of my career
