I started my journey in taking care of people back in 10th grade as a student athletics trainer. At that point, I know that I just wanted to help people feel better and get back to their functional lifestyle. My calling ultimately was to orthopedic sports medicine. This opportunity that I have been given has changed my life. I am humbled each and every day that I have the opportunity to meet new people and partner with them to work as hard we can together to get them back to the activities that give them joy. There is nothing like seeing the smile of one of my partners(patients) when they come back excited to get back to work, sports, or just taking care of their family. Partnerships and relationships are my why.
