Why did you go into neurologic physical therapy? What excites you? I have a passion for helping people optimize their function along the journey of life, which can look different from time to time. I love to help people find joy in the journey and it excites me to help my patients reach their goals!
Any fun hobbies?Hiking, running, traveling and exploring new places with my husband - and spending time with my dogs!
Do you have a specific sub-specialty that you are interested in within neurology? (For example: degenerative diseases, vestibular disorders, stroke, etc.) I am a Multiple Sclerosis Certified Specialist (MSCS), and also specialize in vestibular disorders.
