Summary
I have been a Physical Therapist for 13 years. I have worked in the outpatient and home care settings. I believe that my experience, in both, has taught me to think outside of the box when it comes to treating a patient. I enjoy being able to continue applying my manual skills (learned in outpatient setting) while treating patients in the home care setting. I also enjoy working with vestibular/balance related issues since attending 19.5 CEU hours worth of vestibular/balance classes in February 2019. I am a determined individual proficient in utilizing variety of physical therapy modalities to treat pain, improve mobility and restore function.
