Practice philosophy: I strive to provide holistic care to patients in order to optimize movement, pain management, and emotional well-being through education and exercise.
What are you passionate about and why? I am passionate about engaging patients in their care by understanding their goals and their detailed wellness history to provide the best specific and enjoyable therapy to overcome limitations in life.
If you weren't a health care provider, what would you be? Athlete in Weight Lifting or Biking
What is something you have learned from your patients? Everyone's goals and needs in therapy are different. It's essential to collaborate with the patient for the right plan of care for them.
