    Biography

    What I Do
    In physical therapy, we have a unique experience with patients where we get to spend time with them weekly, often for months at a time. We get to know them on a personal basis, and I genuinely care about each patient that I get to treat. Not only do I get to help them with a specific problem or dysfunction, but I get to help them improve their quality of life. My goal is to help them improve their mobility and function to better enjoy each day. My special clinical interests include orthopedics, pre-operative and post-operative care, and sports medicine.

    Why I Love My Work
    I love watching my patients improve and get back to something they love. Knowing that you played a role in someone’s outcome is rewarding. I also enjoy the variety of the day’s work and knowing that no treatment plan is the same.

    Getting to Know Me
    Outside of work, I enjoy running, biking, and being outdoors. I enjoy spending time with my children, husband, family, and friends. I also love traveling, cooking and music.
