RAMS News: WSSU Grad Answers Calling to Serve Special Needs Students
|
Posted By: How May I Help You NC on April 23, 2012 Sometimes you don’t end up where you planned when you started out. That’s what happened to Maura Mooneyham. Mooneyham grew up outside of Washington, D.C. in Bethesda, Md. She went to North Carolina State University as an undergraduate to attend the College of Textiles, but she ended up graduating in 2007 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a minor in Women's Gender Studies, as well as a new career path. “I have sewn since I was very young, but after my first year, I realized I liked it more as a hobby rather than as a profession,” Mooneyham said. About the same time she had that revelation, she started working part time in the Raleigh/Durham area with children and young adults who had developmental disabilities. Then, a family friend talked to her about occupational therapy. More: http://www.wssu.edu//about/featured-storie... (Photo: Mooneyham works with a client.)
