Nicole Booher joined the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences in 2021. Nicole Booher earned a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from the University of New Mexico. While in school she worked with the adults with disabilities population as a residential instructor and became passionate about occupational therapy. She completed her Master of Occupational Therapy in 2010 from Texas Tech Health Sciences Center in Lubbock, TX.

Upon graduating she settled in Austin and started working at Downtown St. David’s acute and rehab with a focus in neuro populations.
