Biography
I am a physical therapist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, specializing in the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, with a particular interest in lower-extremity injuries and rehabilitation. My physical therapy practice focuses on helping patients improve their movement, achieve their personal goals and enhance their overall quality of life.
I value building meaningful relationships with my patients, and I take time to understand each person's unique needs. My goal is to create a trusting, supportive environment where patients feel heard, encouraged and empowered throughout their recovery.
I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from The Ohio State University School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences. I have also completed Part A training in the McKenzie Method Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy, which strengthened my knowledge of evaluating and treating spinal conditions.
As a former Division I cross-country and track athlete, I especially enjoy working with runners, and I understand the importance of helping athletes safely return to the activities they love. Outside of work, I enjoy running and weightlifting.

Consulting and related relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
