Hello, I am Dr. Angela Cecil, a life-long native of Kentucky and an experienced academician in occupational therapy, a new researcher with a passion for interprofessional education and collaboration, and a seasoned occupational therapist in adult rehabilitation but with a fast-and-furiously growing interest in community- and population-based practice.
I have participated in trials-alliance IPE workshops for approximately 5 years with students and faculty from occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech-language pathology in Louisville, KY. My contributions to this team facilitated an interest in IPE, which became the topic of my dissertation: Applying an ecological perspective to interprofessional education: Attitude changes in students of the tri-alliance
Some of my greatest achievements include: earning my PhD in spring 2021, actively participating in interprofessional organizations, establishing new and life-long relationships with IPE/C influencers, thinkers, and leaders from whom I will learn and will pass on to the generation after me
