Courtney's Departure Interview

by: Susan Wilson. 4/22/15

Courtney Pitts , who is a student at CNU, came to the Denbigh House as an intern for two semesters. In the two semesters that she worked with us, Courtney said that her time here made her have a passion for brain injury survivors.  While volunteering here, Courtney learned to interact with a population that she had never worked with before and also learned that life is hard and not fair for brain injury survivors but with hard work, you can achieve anything. Courtney could not single out a particular memory of the Denbigh House that she will take with her in her future endeavors, because funny and memorable things happened every day during her time here.  Even the small things, like being told "Heck yeah girl" by our member Cary, was memorable to Courtney and she will miss all of the day to day functions and members of the Denbigh House. This summer, after her internship at the Denbigh House, Courtney will be a nanny while applying for full time jobs with social work or a job with Occupational Therapy. Courtney's future goal is to obtain her doctorate in Occupational Therapy and we look forward to congratulating and celebrating with the future Dr. Courtney Pitts. Thank you for your time and efforts at the Denbigh House Courtney, and our door is open to you anytime that you would like to visit us.  Good luck!
