DISCOVER OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

Hi friends! My name is Rachel BAE, now a licensed occupational therapist (OTR/L) and proud NBCOT exam passer (yep, passed after just 8 days of focused studying!). I recently earned my Doctorate in Occupational Therapy from USC, and I’m here to help you do the same, whether you're studying for the NBCOT or navigating life as a future OT.

​

This space was born out of my own whirlwind exam prep experience and my passion for making OT education more approachable. I created the kind of resource I wish I had—clear, encouraging, and grounded in real-life experience. Here, you’ll find everything from high-yield NBCOT tips and concept breakdowns, to blog posts, podcasts, and (soon!) YouTube videos that simplify challenging OT content.

​

I’m also in the process of launching my curated NBCOT prep binder—designed for structure, strategy, and a little aesthetic joy to make studying feel just a bit less overwhelming. Think: printable schedules, concept dividers, cute paper, stress-relief sprays, and space for reflection.

​

But more than all that—I’m a mom to a wonderful elementary schooler, a wife, and an avid believer who deeply values faith, grace, and purpose. It’s my faith that’s carried me through many long nights and tight deadlines, and I hope this platform reflects that same encouragement and light.

​

Whether you’re deep in study mode, a new grad figuring it out, or just OT-curious, I hope this space becomes your study buddy, resource hub, and reminder that you're not alone on this journey.

​

Let’s grow, learn, and pass it forward, together. 💛
