Personal Statement

I became a physical therapist due to my love of movement paired with my desire to help people reach their goals. I make connections with patients so we can figure out together steps to get them back to doing the things they love. I aim to give them the tools and guidance needed to help them achieve these goals.

Outside of being a PT, I love to be active, which usually looks like going to the gym or going on walks. I also love to read, play board games, and watch movies. My favorite time of year is summer, and there is nothing better than being by a pool with a book!
