Bio

In High School, I struggled to determine a career path that I was enthusiastic about. However, having gone through Physical Therapy several times for injuries of my own, I decided to accept an internship with a local outpatient clinic. What I discovered was a profession that managed to combined both my passion for health and wellness, as well as my desire to help others. Almost immediately I decided this was the career for me. Throughout undergraduate, my doctorate, and while working professionally, I have loved being able to expand my knowledge of treatment, and continue to improve my craft. In a continuous pursuit of growth, I even decided to complete an Orthopedic Residency and became a Orthopedic Certified Specialist. Despite being proud of the accolades I have achieved; I continue to seek new ways to improve my abilities as a Physical Therapist.

Bio

After completing my undergraduate studies, I did not know what career path I wanted to pursue. However, I ultimately found my way into physical therapy by shadowing PTs in a hospital setting and working as an aide in an outpatient orthopedic clinic. Being in the clinic every day gave me a real look at the recovery process and led me to pursue my degree in the field. I’ve always found it incredibly rewarding to help people work through the challenges of an injury or ailment. My goal is to work right alongside my patients to bridge the gap between where they are and their prior level of function. There is truly nothing better than seeing someone get their confidence back and return to the activities they love most.
