Area of specialty/subspecialty

Pediatric rehabilitation with emphasis in cerebral palsy, tone management, neuromuscular diagnoses, gross motor development, gait and orthotic management, and DME.

Years of Practice: 8

Philosophy of care: I believe in functional, patient- and family-centered care that takes into account the unique needs, preferences, and values of each child and family while also prioritizing best evidence-based practices. I have worked in a variety of pediatric settings as a physical therapist, including birth to three, schools, and both private and hospital-based outpatient. I have also been a gymnastics coach for 15 years, coaching everything from beginning to competitive levels.

When I’m not working, I enjoy hiking, backpacking, bouldering, skiing, and hanging out with my wife and 2 cats.
