Summary
Second-year Doctor of Physical Therapy Student at the University of Kansas Medical Center, with a strong foundation in human movement and leadership. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, with a minor in Leadership Studies, from Kansas State University, where I became motivated to improve lives through patient-centered care, interprofessional collaboration, and evidence-based practice. Through integrated clinical experiences in multiple settings, I’m continuing to build the knowledge and skills needed to make a meaningful impact as a future physical therapist.
