I received my Bachelor of Science in Public Health Education from the University of North Dakota and my Doctorate of Physical Therapy from the University of Mary.
During my career as a physical therapist I have been able to work with patients across the lifespan in outpatient, assisted living, and home health settings. It has allowed me to utilize movement as medicine with high-level athletes returning to competitive sport to people hoping to return to confidently completing stairs and lifting their grandkids. Empowering patients to take an active role in their rehab is a passion of mine, and I believe that it is essential for patients to reach their goals.
In my free time I enjoy spending time with my wife and dog, fishing, playing recreational sports, listening to audiobooks, and cheering on the major Twin Cities sports teams.
