Biography What I Do
I believe when an issue is complex, the solution should be simple. Most of my patients are surprised at how little they need to do in order to see improvement in their conditions. My clinical interests include sports and orthopedics, complex spine pain, headache, post-concussion syndrome, TMJ/TMDD, and those suffering from chronic pain.I enjoy working with people who have previously tried physical therapy and are in need of a different approach to their care.
Why I Love My Work
I decided, in part, to pursue a career in physical therapy after experiencing injuries in high school and enjoying the rehabilitation process. My favorite part about my job is helping motivated patients achieve their goals.Getting to Know Me
Prior to becoming a physical therapist, I worked for over 10 years as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist with high school, collegiate and professional athletes. My resume includes working with world champion powerlifters, division I and II hockey players and professional bull riders.
Outside of work, I enjoy weight training, reading and learning new things. My wife and I have two kids and three dogs.Education -
