Director of Driver Rehabilitation Services

Trista Windows

I have been a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA/L) for 16 years. For 10 years of my career, I worked at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center where I met Tammy Phipps many years ago. When it was time for a change in setting, I jumped ship to Driver Rehabilitation Center of Excellence in 2018. I then obtained my credential of Certified Driver Rehabilitation Specialist (CDRS) in 2020 (about the only positive thing to come out of that year) At DRCE, I work primarily doing behind the wheel training for our customers in need of auto adaptive equipment as well as managing our driver rehab team. I volunteer for The National Board of Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) on several committees. My next goal is to obtain my Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) Certification. Outside of work I love to travel – I am on a quest to visit and stay at least one night in all 50 states. I am currently at 31/50. I am also a self-proclaimed vacuum snob, I currently own 4.

System Operations Manager

Noah Phipps

I am the System Operations Manager at Driver Rehabilitation Center of Excellence. I have been in the industry for 4 years. At DRCE, I handle all system operations for driving rehabilitation and mobility solutions. A fun fact about me is that the longest drive I’ve ever done solo is 14.5 hours, from Virginia to Missouri.

C.D.O (Chief Dog Officer)

Smoke

I am the Chief Dog Officer at Driver Rehabilitation Center of Excellence. I have been helping people my entire life, 10 years! At DRCE, I greet all of our customers, beg for treats, ensure that the humans get outside to exercise, and ensure that my spot on the couch in the waiting room is occupied by me during my spare time. I guess you could say that I’m the “top dog” in the office. A fun fact about me is that I worked for a year as a seeing eye dog and for 3 years as a service dog, but retired to spend my time at DRCE.

Director of HR

Randy Benson

I am the Vice President of Operations and HR at Driver Rehabilitation Center of Excellence. I have been in the industry for 10 years. At DRCE, I am accountable for all HR functions. I handle taxes, budgeting, vendor’s relations, building maintenance, and more. Some fun facts about me are that I have lived in 5 states and visited 42. Additionally, I’ve been married to my sweetheart for 48 years and we have 2 children and 9 grandchildren.

Administrative Assistant

Julie Henry

I started at driver rehab center as a client back in 2019. Because of my disability I realized it would not be possible for me to drive regularly. The people at driver rehab center adapted my car and taught me how to drive with hand controls. I am now an administrative assistant at DRCE. I am in college at NOVA planning to transfer to George Mason University and peruse a degree in business. I hope to continue along a similar path of helping people with disabilities. In my free time I love hanging out with my family, friends, and pets.

COTA/L, DRS

Amanda Mendez

I am a licensed and certified Occupational Therapy Assistant and a Driving Rehabilitation Specialist. I have worked in various settings of rehab for 7 years including, skilled nursing home, acute rehabilitation, outpatient autism/behavioral clinic, home health and now driving rehab. So far, driving rehabilitation has been the most rewarding setting for me and I am still learning every day! Also, the team at DRCE is the best team of coworkers that I have ever had the opportunity to work with- they are truly serving the client and consider everyone holistically. I personally enjoy being active and outdoors, hiking, yoga, and spending time with my family. I am currently expecting my third child. My goal for next year is to become a certified driving rehabilitation specialist (CDRS) and to travel more with my family.

Sales Associate and Peer Mentor

Jesse Graham

I am a 13-year Air Force Veteran. I was in a snowboarding accident that resulted in a spinal cord injury. After my injury I met Tammy Phipps at Walter Reed Hospital and realized that driving was very important to me in terms of remaining independent. I believe getting back behind the wheel saved my marriage. Once DRCE was opened in 2016, I have been working to help mentor many customers with SCI’s and assisting in sales, fittings, and customer feedback.

Director of Marketing and Sales

Marcus Foran

I retired out of the military in 2016 (Semper Fi!!!) I am fortunate enough to be the Director of Sales and Marketing at Driver Rehabilitation Center of Excellence. I have been in the industry for 3 years. At DRCE, I am responsible for sales of auto-adaptive equipment, and I help to facilitate vehicle sales for customers. Some fun facts about me: I once climbed to the top of Mt. Fuji during the night to watch the sunrise. Also, I spent 3 weeks hiking in the Australian Northern Territory and crossed the Pacific Ocean on a ship 5X.

I became a certified driver rehabilitation specialist (CDRS) in 2017 and opened my private practice in 2020 offering community-based driver rehabilitation services throughout the state of Ohio. At DRCE, I evaluate and train clients with physical, cognitive, and visual deficits to determine best fit equipment and options for community mobility. I am a specialist with high tech driving systems that can be utilized to serve clients with significant physical limitations (spinal cord injuries, muscular dystrophy, arthrogryposis, etc.). Some fun facts about me are I love to sing and will likely get caught singing along to just about anything in the car and enjoy spending time with my husband, son, and goofy Labrador ‘Rex’.
