About Me

I have been a physical therapist at Duke since 2010, and enjoy every day spent working with my patients. I became interested in physical therapy after seeing my family member undergo rehabilitation when I was a teenager, and I am very glad I chose to pursue this as a career. The ability to work one-on-one with my patients and see their progress is very rewarding. I treat many types of musculoskeletal impairments, with a special interest in the treatment of the spine. I also have a clinical interest in treating impairments of the vestibular system. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, running, and cycling.

If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with Duke, your out of pocket liability may be higher.
