Our Story

Gracie and Leahana are former UT students who spent their undergraduate years preparing to apply for Occupational Therapy Graduate Programs independently. They realized that such a niche career path deserved a community at UT. Together, they co-founded the Texas Pre-Occupational Therapy Community during the Fall of 2022.
