Mary Jussel, Boise, ID I grew up in California and graduated from The University of California, Davis in 1990 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art Studio and an elective emphasis in the biological sciences. The following year I moved to Boise, Idaho and learned about the orthotics profession. (Evaluating for and fabricating braces for limbs that need support for improved function, protection, healing or growth.) I went on to attend Chicago’s Northwestern University to earn a post graduate certification in orthotics. I returned to Boise, and have worked as an orthotist there ever since [except for a 5 year break (2002-2006) to focus on my beautiful daughters, Claire and Anna and my wonderful husband, Craig]. The field of orthotics has allowed me to enjoy patients from infants to the elderly with a wide variety of diagnoses including Alzheimer's, cerebral palsy, stroke, autism, traumatic brain injury and more. I have continued during this time to entertain my artistic interests through painting, fused glass, and teaching art at my children's elementary school. Art Without Boundaries provides an exciting opportunity for me to combine the patient experience and knowledge gained in the field of orthotics with my artistic side to help and share in an artistic and compassionate way with so many wonderful people in my community. |
