I love the challenge of working with complex pediatric cases, and given this challenge comes the reward of their progress. Whether it's sitting up independently or riding a trike, each individual moment brings so much joy to me as it does to the patient and their families.

My philosophy of care is always the patient comes first. I always strive to incorporate the patient and/or family in goals and make them as functional and realistic as possible. I wanted to become a physical therapist because I love seeing the progress that patients make and following their journeys of improvement.

Areas Of Interest

My areas of interest in pediatrics includes toe walking, torticollis, CP, Down Syndrome, autism, and general developmental delays.

I like to spend my time outside of work with family, friends, and my two dogs. I enjoy running, swimming, hiking, and spending time outdoors. I also like DIY projects, listening to podcasts, watching true crime documentaries, and reading.
