Mason Suba OTD ’26

Hometown: Sandy Hook, CT
Program: Bachelor’s to Doctorate, Class of 2026

What brought you to USC?
I really appreciated USC’s collaborative work environment and focus on research to improve the field.

What brought you to Occupational Therapy?
I was brought to occupational therapy because my mother is an occupational therapist and I grew up watching her practice. Watching her help children with special needs on a daily basis inspired me to want to do the same.

What are some of the occupations you engage in?
One of my favorite occupations that I engage in is swimming. I have been a swimmer my whole life and I try to get into the pool as much as I can!

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
The best advice that I have ever been given is to take a deep breath and always remember that there are multiple paths in life.

If you could travel anywhere, where would it be?
If I could travel anywhere in the world I would go to Tahiti because I think it has gorgeous nature and scenery!
