About

Biography

As a physical therapist (PT), I specialize in treating orthopedic and sports-specific injuries in the pediatric population. I am also trained in integrative dry needling.

Growing up playing multiple sports, I had my fair share of injuries. I spent several hours in physical therapy as a patient, which inspired me to continue my education to become a PT.

I like to meet patients where they are to develop the best treatment approach. My unique plan of care for each individual is designed to provide the best opportunity for improvement and positive outcomes.

I enjoy playing soccer, running, skiing, hiking and reading when I'm not at work.

Bachelor of Arts: pre-physical therapy and exercise science, Baldwin Wallace University, 2010.

Doctor of Physical Therapy: Cleveland State University, 2018.
