At Banner Health, I coordinate care and specialty services for professional athletic affiliates, including the Arizona Diamondbacks, Colorado Rockies, and San Francisco Giants.

With Select Medical / Banner Physical Therapy, I provide athletic training services for NBA game officials during Phoenix home games. I assess and manage injuries, provide emergency sideline care, and develop rehabilitation plans to support return to play.

Previously, at Lakeshore Bone and Joint Institute, I documented company-wide coding and billing practices and advanced the use of Exscribe electronic medical records. At Kunlun Red Stars Hockey Club, I launched a sports medicine program covering injury care, rehabilitation, and athlete wellness. I hold a Master of Science in Special Studies Sports Psychology and certifications including Athletic Training Board of Certification and Arizona Licensed Athletic Trainer.
