Why did you become a Therapist?
As a teenager, I was struck with a rare neurological condition called Guillain-Barre syndrome that left me temporarily paralyzed. Throughout my recovery process I encountered a number of passionate and caring physical therapists that left me inspired to help others regain function as I had been helped. I became intrigued by the bodies healing capabilities. I found a career that I can educate and empower individuals to return to optimal function while having fun.
