My passion for this work is professional, but it’s deeply personal, too.

I’ve navigated my own journey through women’s health concerns, endometriosis, infertility, IVF, pregnancy, an emergency C-section, postpartum recovery, and ultimately becoming a mom to my rainbow baby. I’ve experienced healthcare from both sides of the treatment table. I know what it’s like to have questions about your body, to search for answers, and to want someone to listen to the entire story instead of focusing on one symptom, one scan, or one diagnosis.

Additionally, seeing how much better my Nana did with physical therapy--and the relationship she built with her PT--ultimately shifted my path from pre-med to physical therapy . Since then, I've watched other family members navigate neurological and pelvic health conditions and experienced firsthand how much the right physical therapy can improve movement, confidence, independence, and quality of life. Those experiences have stayed with me and continue to shape the kind of clinician I want to be—someone who looks at the whole person, listens to what matters to them, and helps them keep doing the things that make their life theirs.
