PT, DPT, CSCS, Cert. DN
Physical Therapist

I am originally from Cedar Falls, Iowa. I got interested in healthcare at a young age and found out about the physical therapy profession in high school. I loved the way it combined quality and compassionate healthcare with an active lifestyle. I received my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Health from Iowa State University, graduating Magna Cum Laude. I then went on to pursue my doctoral degree from Des Moines University. Since this time, I have been practicing in rural Iowa and am excited to return to the metro area.

Working in rural healthcare, I got to experience every condition across the lifespan. I enjoy working with people from all walks of life. Over the last couple of years, I have honed in on orthopedic and sport-specific conditions that will enable me to continue to help people reach their fullest potential.

Core Values:

Integrity over Everything, Compassionate Heathcare, Pursuit of Excellence.

Favorite Quote:

“All that is gold does not glitter; not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither; deep roots are not reached by the frost.” J.R.R. Tolkien

I am a certified strength and conditioning specialist and certified in dry needling. I am passionate about helping people progress through their rehab effectively and efficiently.

I love helping people get back to the goals they have set for themselves, big or small.

I love the team spirit and positive atmosphere.

My husband and I love running and cycling. We also love taking our dog, River, for walks. In the winter, you will catch us skiing!
