Area of interest

I think my interests and curiosity will change over the years and that is the great thing about occupational therapy. I do not want to be limited to doing the same exact thing for the next 30 years every single day from 9:00 to 5:00. I enjoy a change of pace and venue. However I think my end goal would be to work in a for profit agency with a outpatient type setting. I believe eventually I would like to start and run my own clinic that is why I am saying this setting cause that would be the most common type. I like the thought of the freedom and adventure that comes with being my own boss and running a small business. I think this would allow me to always be pushing to learn something new and expand my services to best service my clients. I think a clinic with both a pediatric side and an adult outpatient side with a variety of services not just occupational therapy would be the goal. However I know that is not a feasible starting spot. I really have a interest and a heart for pediatrics, and I enjoyed my time during my internship that was done in a pediatric clinic. However I am interested in seeing as many different settings as possible. I feel like a public agency such as an acute care hospital would allow me to see a variety of diagnosis and disorders to sharpen my skills, broaden my experiences, and make valuable networking contacts. As of right now I have not found a special certification that draws my attention so much that I would like to focus on it, but that could change at any time. As you can see it is not necessarily a single nitch that intrigues me the as much as it is the endless possibilities and serving people along the way.
