Current Role Working With The Athletic Population

I currently own and operate my own private Physical Therapy practice out of a private fitness facility in Scottsdale, AZ where I work with mostly athletes in either the injury reduction setting or the return to sport setting after sustaining an injury. I specialize in assessment and treatment of strength athletes as well as gymnasts.

Professional Philosophy

Work Smarter, not Harder.

Athletic Background
