Jay Brashear, OTR/L, MOT

Jay is a graduate from Texas Women’s University in 1999 with a Masters Degree in Occupational Therapy.

Out of high school I was a cook. Although it was only supposed to be temporary, I did that for 13 years. In 1986 through a friend I landed a job in a life skills center working with teenagers with special needs. Originally, the job appealed to me because of weekends and holidays off but I very shortly fell so in love with what the job really was, I could have done it on weekends and holidays as well. The only drawback was the job would never amount to any kind of meaningful salary but I loved the content. Soon I knew what had to be done: a college degree.

I gathered up what college credit I had at that point and headed up to Northern Arizona University with the intentions of becoming a Physical Therapist. I completed my undergrad & began applying to programs. During this time I was working as a Physical/Occupational Therapy tech at various hospitals which was helping me to realize that I loved working with people, helping me to see what PT and OT were about and helping keep my eye on the prize: a degree.

After attending Texas Women’s University, I was blessed to find my first job in Show Low, AZ. From there I was able to gain experience as a clinician and I found myself working in home health, skilled nursing facilities and some pediatrics. I am again working in Show Low and loving it. I am married to the greatest woman on the planet and have two beautiful boys.
