Ms. Elise
MS, OTR/L
Pediatric Occupational Therapist
Elise received her Masters of Occupational Therapy at SUNY Downstate in New York City where she is from. She spent 6 years living in Nicaragua to surf and work with children - both as a surf instructor and a school teacher. A deep-rooted love of play and movement brought her to pediatric occupational therapy. Elise’s passion for working with kids in the water and her dream of bringing OT to surf therapy led her naturally to aquatic therapy, and she loves working in the therapy pool. She came to Oahu as a school-based OT working on the west side, and is committed to being of service to her community.
