Molly White
Assistant Program Coordinator

Hey everyone! My name is Molly White. I was born and raised in Anderson, SC. I graduated from Clemson University in 2016 with a Bachelors in Recreational Therapy. During my time at Clemson I volunteered at different therapeutic horseback riding farms and with the Clemson LIFE program. Shortly after receiving my Bachelors I became a certified Recreational Therapist. If I’m not working, you can probably find me outside doing some kind of recreational activity or watching my husband, Eli play baseball.
