I attended Pacific University for my undergraduate biology degree, and George Fox University for my DPT. In the past, I have trained for competitive powerlifting and enjoy helping people discover their inner strength. In my free time I am a hobby mechanic, fisherman, and hunter. I am growing my skills in helping patients that have highly variable presentations such as chronic pain, concussion, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, and stroke. I have a heart to help people safely explore their full potential in movement, especially if life has surprised them with a new set of unexpected circumstances. I firmly believe in patient centered care, and that physical therapy should be a partnership where therapist and patient put the pieces together as a team.
