Meet our Residents

Hi everyone! My name is Nicole. A few things I enjoy are long runs out here in the PNW, pasta, and a good book.  
My passion for neuroscience began as a competitive figure skater where I discovered how powerful the mind-body connection really can be. This drove me to complete a Bachelor of Science degree in cognitive and behavioral neuroscience at Loyola University Chicago, where I attended from 2017-2021. I then moved to Atlanta, GA where I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Emory University in May 2024. As a DPT student, I remained involved in community service. My favorite service opportunity was presenting on balance and fall prevention to the local community in Bend, Oregon during my final semester.
After graduation, I moved back home to Chicago where I worked in both the outpatient and inpatient settings for one year before pursuing residency. I am so thankful to be a part of the UW-EvergreenHealth Neurologic PT Residency program. Over the next coming months, I look forward to refining my clinical skills as a neurologic physical therapist and become a strong advocate for my patients. I hope to solidify both my passions for teaching and service to give back to the community that inspires me daily!
