Elisabeth Payne
I have been working as an orientation and mobility specialist for more than 15 years, partnering with individuals, school districts, universities, private companies, and state and federal agencies across the country. My goal is simple: to help you reach your own goal of independence, whatever that looks like for you.
I work at your pace — with a little push when you're ready for it.
Please note that I use a mobility scooter for extended outdoor sessions. This does not affect my ability to provide full O&M training.
