    I believe everybody is unique and different, therefore they should be treated as such in physical therapy . I'm big into finding out patient's functional goals for Physical Therapy or anything important in their life they feel limited in doing and helping them get back to 100 % .

    Education

    Denver School of Massage Therapy: 2010-2011
    Physical Therapist Assistant Concorde Career College: 2022-2023

    Treatment Philosophy

    My treatment philosophy is still evolving as I figure out who I am as a Physical therapist Assistant. I like to listen to the body during my treatment sessions. I feel that the phrase “No pain, No gain” I feel is detrimental to an extent. Therapy should never be painful, you should feel like you are working out, but never making the pain worse. I think listening to the body is super important, it will tell you when it has had enough, and I don’t think ushing past that point is helpful to a patient's therapy journey.

    Interests and Hobbies

    Some of my hobbies and interests are listening to Podcasts, reading, hiking, and getting back into baking! I love music of all kinds and will watch almost any movie. I love spending time with my family, partner and my friends as often as I can.

    Treatment Philosophy

    My treatment philosophy is still evolving as I figure out who I am as a Physical therapist Assistant. I like to listen to the body during my treatment sessions. I feel that the phrase “No pain, No gain” I feel is detrimental to an extent. Therapy should never be painful, you should feel like you are working out, but never making the pain worse. I think listening to the body is super important, it will tell you when it has had enough, and I don’t think ushing past that point is helpful to a patient's therapy journey.

    Interests and Hobbies

    Some of my hobbies and interests are listening to Podcasts, reading, hiking, and getting back into baking! I love music of all kinds and will watch almost any movie. I love spending time with my family, partner and my friends as often as I can.

    Interests and Hobbies

    In my spare time I enjoy exploring Colorado, including hiking, skiing, biking and road trips. I also enjoy playing hockey, golf, pickleball and generally staying active. If I'm not in the mountains or playing sports, I enjoy spending time with my dog, playing guitar, going to concerts or checking out new restaurants.

    Interests and Hobbies

    I am a huge foodie; I love to cook and most of all eat! Outside of food I love a good book and am always looking for new pages to get lost in. My dog kiba is my love and he and I enjoy going out on a hike and just being outside in the sun.

    Treatment Philosophy

    I believe in patient education and promoting self-sufficiency via therapeutic exercise. I will guide you through the therapy process and prescribe specific exercises and incorporate manual techniques to jump-start and/or maintain the healing process. Only a small amount of time is spent in therapy and I want to provide the instruction and motivation to promote change.

    Interests and Hobbies

    I am an outdoorsman at heart. I love archery and hunting in my home state of WI, but am excited to begin elk hunting in CO! I am also a huge sports fan (packers & badgers especially) and enjoy fishing, cooking, and resistance training. Overall, I enjoy being active and hanging out with friends and family!

    Interests and Hobbies

    I like staying active and going to the gym as my main form of exercise. I moved here from Oregon a few years ago and look forward to snowboarding all winter and hiking in the summer. I enjoy watching all types of sports, primarily football, basketball, MMA, and water polo when it is on! I also value my time at home and spend it cooking, watching movies/tv (Jeopardy) and spending time with friends and family.
