Sara Brito is an Associate Professor at Eastern Kentucky University. She has previously taught in two other higher education occupational therapy programs (Federation University and Monash University, Australia). Sara has taught a range of classes including some inter-disciplinary ones. 

Her clinic experience is in general and upper limb rehabilitation in both hospital and private therapy settings. Her work involved assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of patients with hand and upper limb injuries or conditions.

Her research interests continue to explore upper extremity health, understanding and addressing rural health disparities, and optimizing health through meaningful participation in daily life.
