I have experienced rehab first hand after tearing my ACL, and recovering to return to collegiate level basketball.
After playing basketball and achieving a Bachelor's Degree of Science from Waldorf College in Forest City, IA, I attended Azusa Pacific University for the Doctorate of Physical Therapy Program.
​
At the end of the program, I attended a Medical Mission Trip to Kipkaren, Kenya to promote Physical Therapy services in a rural, farming town through Hospice, Home Health and Outpatient services while providing training to local therapists.
