What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to provide quality patient care while fostering professional growth and collaboration within a supportive team environment.

I am a dedicated physical therapist with extensive experience in outpatient and home health settings. My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, followed by a Master of Science in Physical Therapy and ultimately achieving a Doctorate of Physical Therapy. Over the years, I have honed my skills in various clinical environments, including outpatient clinics, skilled nursing facilities, and acute rehabilitation settings. I am passionate about providing the highest quality of patient care and continuously expanding my professional skills.

Throughout my career, I have taken on roles that not only involve direct patient care, but also leadership responsibilities, such as managing clinic operations and participating in quality improvement initiatives. My commitment to professional development is evident through my certifications in dry needling and various advanced physical therapy techniques. I strive to create personalized treatment plans that empower my patients to achieve their rehabilitation goals. I am always looking to expand my knowledge.
