I’m an athlete. I always have been and always will be. I grew up playing soccer, volleyball, softball, and snowboarding. I had the benefit of coaches who commanded excellence and inspired work ethic in all training. My competitive and driven background in sports certainly supported my foundation of constantly striving to progress. The foundation of pursing optimal performance, my work ethic and my passion for helping others has driven my constantly advancing knowledge in Physical Therapy. I strive to be the best, so that I can give the best. Throughout my career, I have attended countless hours of continuing education to be able to learn and employ highly skilled treatments. I am proud to be a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Therapy through the American Academy of Manipulative Therapy. I am also an Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS) through the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialists and hold multiple credentials including: Diploma in Osteopractic, Certification in Dry Needling, Certification in Spinal Manipulation, and Certification in Blood Flow Restriction. I am also a Certified Rocktape Provider of Fascial Movement Tapping (FMT Level 1&2).

My number 1 importance in practice is giving each and every individual EXACTLY what would benefit them the most. My passion for helping others, drives my commitment to providing the absolute best care. I am able to do this by providing a combination of specialized evidence-based treatments in a direct bond with each individual. When I’m not working with patients or advancing my physical therapy knowledge and skills, I enjoy spending time with my husband and 2 children. We love to swim, play outdoors and travel.

I’m an athlete at heart, always have been, always will be. My athletic journey began with conventional weightlifting, volleyball, and yoga, and expanded to include outdoor activities like kayaking, paddle boarding, and camping. I’ve challenged myself in Spartan races and local 5Ks, embodying the spirit of being a doer of all and a master of none. ​My diverse athletic background has provided me with valuable insights into the human body’s capabilities and limitations, which I apply in my work as a Physical Therapy Assistant.​ My professional path has been as diverse as my athletic pursuits. I started with a Marketing degree and spent several years in Retail management before discovering my true calling in Physical Therapy. This unique background gives me a well-rounded perspective on patient care and practice management. I completed my PTA degree later in life, a decision that allowed me to combine my passion for health and fitness with my desire to help others achieve their goals.

Throughout my career, I’ve gained valuable experience in various areas of physical therapy, including human performance, traumatic brain injury (TBI) rehabilitation, work in Naval hospitals, post-surgical care, and supporting amputees. My passion lies in performance enhancement and working with special populations to help them reach their full potential. I’ve furthered my expertise with certifications in Barbell Rehab, Functional Movement Systems (FMS), and PPSC, constantly striving to expand my knowledge and skills to better serve my patients.

I firmly believe in a holistic approach to health and wellness. In my practice, I emphasize that the location of pain isn’t always the source of the problem, and that achieving optimal health requires addressing both body and mind. I’m committed to forming personal and emotional connections with my patients, prioritizing their individual goals over preset standards. My aim is to provide care that has lasting effects, applicable at all stages of life.

Community involvement is a crucial part of my life and practice. Having lived in the area for the past eight years, I actively participate in sports leagues, clubs, and youth programs. This engagement allows me to contribute to our community’s health and well-being beyond the walls of our clinic. When I’m not working with patients or advancing my physical therapy knowledge, I enjoy spending time with my three dogs and one cat. I’m always excited to meet new patients, hear about their goals, and create personalized plans to help them succeed. My approach involves hands-on, interactive therapy with constant communication to ensure patients feel supported and see progress.

At Alpha Osteopractic, I’m dedicated to offering my knowledge and passion to help you become your best possible self. I believe that an investment in your health should have lasting effects, and I’m committed to providing the care and guidance to make that a reality. I look forward to meeting you and being a part of your journey to improved health and performance.
