We are proud to share that our very own Dr. Michael Urban is running for AOTA Treasurer 👏

At CUOT, we are continually inspired by the leadership, service, and vision demonstrated by our faculty. This year, we are proud to endorse Dr. Urban’s candidacy, as we believe deeply in his commitment to advancing occupational therapy and stewarding AOTA’s resources with integrity, transparency, and purpose.

Dr. Urban’s future-focused leadership continues to expand the reach, value, and impact of our profession—and we are excited to support him in this next chapter.
