About Me

I became interested in musculoskeletal care and physical therapy after years of participation in athletics. As a physical therapist, I enjoy the relationships formed with patients, and I strive to foster a positive and enthusiastic work environment for patients and staff alike. My aim is to work together with my patients to meet their unique goals. My treatments are focused on treating the whole individual with evidence-based approaches to optimize outcomes. I have a special interest in health care services delivery, exploring new and innovative care models, and bringing the most value to my patients. My hobbies include physical fitness, soccer, golf, travel, food, playing cards, and hiking with my wife, kids, and dog.
