What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to utilize my skills in a supportive environment, focusing on patient-centered care and professional growth.

I am a dedicated Physical Therapist with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of Alabama Birmingham. My journey in healthcare began with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and Wellness, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude. I have a strong commitment to improving patient outcomes through evidence-based practices and individualized care plans.

Currently, I work as a PRN Physical Therapist at Enhabit Home Health, where I previously served as a full-time therapist. My role involves supervising a team of licensed physical therapist assistants and collaborating closely with physicians and nurses to ensure quality care. I have experience with various EMR systems and have successfully managed complex patient populations, including those with neurological, cardiopulmonary, and orthopedic conditions.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong leadership and communication skills, training staff in effective physical therapy techniques and ensuring safe practices within the healthcare environment. I am passionate about patient education and strive to empower individuals through tailored home exercise programs and comprehensive care plans.
