I graduated from David Lipscomb University in Nashville, TN with a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology in 2009. I then furthered my education by attending Nova Southeastern University in Davie, Florida where I received a Doctorate of Physical Therapy degree in 2014. I played collegiate basketball and worked as a personal trainer prior to PT school. I assumed I would continue down the route of working in an adult Orthopedic setting; however, during my outpatient Pediatric clinical rotation, I myself was pregnant with my husband and I’s first and felt a strong connection with the babies and their parents during this time. It was in those moments that I found my passion for Pediatrics.

Having three children now of my own as well as eleven years of experience in the field, I have a strong background in understanding typical and atypical infant development.  I specialize in Early Intervention, Repositioning to Avoid a Helmet, Torticollis, Plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome), and Developmental Delay. As a PT, my desire is to find families in those early years to set a strong foundation for life-long development.
