• Applied diverse, evidence-based treatment approaches tailored to patient needs, including functional mobility training, neuromuscular re-education, balance and gait training, therapeutic exercise, and task-specific interventions to maximize independence and recovery in a high-acuity inpatient rehab setting
• Led interdisciplinary team meetings to collaboratively assess patient progress and adjust therapies accordingly
• Supervised clinical students, certified and licensed assistants, technicians, and volunteers
• Developed strong relationships with patients, establishing trust and rapport to facilitate successful therapy outcomes

• Provided pediatric rehabilitation in early intervention and home health settings for children with developmental delays and prematurity to support developmental milestones

• Treated a broad range of pediatric neurological conditions in the outpatient setting using individualized, evidence-based interventions

• Performed assessments and implemented targeted interventions for tone, muscle imbalance, and alignment issues using therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, and neuromuscular re-education; collaborated on orthotic recommendations to improve gait

• Supported motor development through sensory-motor activities and reflex integration techniques to promote functional movement patterns

• Provided rehabilitative care in home health and outpatient settings for a wide range of conditions including postural dysfunction, muscle imbalances, joint replacements, falls, generalized weakness, sports injuries, and vestibular disorders

• Implemented evidence-based interventions using manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and ergonomic education to improve alignment, biomechanics, and functional movement

• Treated sports-related injuries such as strains, sprains, and tendinopathies using progressive rehabilitation and sport-specific exercise programs to support recovery and reduce re-injury risk

• Provided rehabilitation for patients with stroke, spinal cord injury, and other neurological conditions to improve mobility, function, and independence

• Developed individualized treatment plans for deconditioning, post-surgical recovery, falls, and joint replacements using evidence-based interventions to restore function and support return to daily activities

• Collaborated with interdisciplinary teams to deliver coordinated, patient-centered care focused on optimal functional outcomes

• Participated in shadowing opportunities at various healthcare facilities, including North Country Healthcare (Williams), NAU Campus Health, Flagstaff Medical Center, and Children's Health Center. This experience enriched understanding of treatment for patients of all ages and varying conditions.

• Enhanced customer experience, equipment care, efficient scheduling management, and strategic marketing initiatives.
