I grew up in a small town where I played every sport I could – from soccer and basketball to track and field. In college, my passion for movement continued through intramural sports and recreational leagues. Staying active wasn’t just a hobby – it was my lifestyle.

But in 2016, while training for a triathlon, I slipped on ice and fractured my hip. Just six weeks later, a serious car accident left me with a herniated disc. As an athlete, I’d faced injuries before, but this time was different – I didn’t know if I’d walk again.

At the time, I had already been working as a therapist for nearly a decade, helping others recover from sports injuries, chronic pain, and mobility challenges. Suddenly, I was living my patients’ experiences firsthand. I followed every recovery recommendation, stepping back from intense training to allow my body to heal. That pause became a turning point – it helped me tune into my body in a way I never had before.

Through my own injury recovery and rehabilitation journey, I developed a deeper understanding of the physical and emotional challenges that come with healing. Today, I approach my work with greater empathy, listening more deeply to each patient’s needs, and creating personalized care plans that honor their unique path to wellness.

If you’re navigating an injury, dealing with chronic pain, or looking to restore your mobility, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to help guide your recovery.
