Samantha is an ABC-certified prosthetist/orthotist for Hanger Clinic in Sylvania, Ohio. She was drawn to the O&P field because she wanted to apply her mechanical engineering expertise while being able to work with people. She sees a wide range of prosthetic and orthotic patients, and also focuses on cranial remolding orthoses. She enjoys working with infant patients because she gets to work closely with their families and watch them grow, quantifying noticeable change.

Outside of work, Samantha enjoys being outdoors, traveling, serving in the kids’ ministry at her church, and spending time with friends and family.
