Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology (Michigan State University)
Doctorate in Physical Therapy (UM-Flint)
Level 1 CrossFit Trainer
I have enjoyed exercise and competition since I was a kid. I grew up playing several sports, my favorites were always basketball and soccer. Currently, I still play golf, basketball, and soccer regularly. I have worked out in regular commercial gyms over the last 10 years but was drawn to CrossFit for the added challenge, uniqueness, and community aspect of the gym. I am also a big movie buff and MSU sports fan.
As a health care provider, I am a big believer in exercise as a first-line treatment for several of the chronic health problems our society faces. I also enjoy using my skill set as a physical therapist to help athletes perform better, or be able to continue training through injury.
