About The OT Circus
The OT Circus is a pathway we created to connect the occupational therapy profession with the community of ABQ to come together to create art, music, friendships.
The OT Circus is a New Mexican based non-profit focused on using various therapeutic means and creativity to build an inclusive community that brings people of all abilities together. We do this by:
- Creating opportunities for people of all abilities to showcase creative work.
- Creating a safe, supportive space for creative and therapeutic activities to help with physical, cognitive, and social development.
- Fostering communities for people of all abilities using art, music, games and other social and cultural activities.

My vision is compiled of many facets and many people are involved in this circus and I am responsible for every aspect from logos to payroll. Life experience and hard work have brought me to this point. I have been an occupational therapist for 18 years and I love my profession. " Work hard and good things will come" My dad the Mayor of Cuba NM, mailman for the Navajo reservation, tow truck guy and the butcher in a small town leads me to the statement and my dream of being a Mayor myself....Mayor of downtown Burque. The anchor of downtown is the OT Circus. The anchor of a community that is ready to be transformed into different abilities with all the people we come in contact with. Not just in Burque but in all areas of NM and AZ and maybe the circus will be world wide. Even with uncertain times my dedication to my vision is still unwavered.
