Tell us about yourself
I am a goof ball at heart and look 100x more serious than I actually am. I am the youngest of three and an aunt to 5 kiddos. I enjoy watching and playing all kinds of sports just as much as I love binging tv on the couch.
Why did you become a physical therapy assistant?
I knew physical therapy was the career for me when my dad got injured my senior year of high school. I tagged along to all his appointments and was amazed how they took such great care of him and treated him with such respect. I ended up as a PT tech at the same location throughout my undergraduate degree.
Why do you think your coworkers nominated you for selflessness?
I honestly struggle sitting still so I always offer to help if I see someone needs it. I know everyone would do the same for me.
What do you love most about working with TEAM 4 Kids?
I love the camaraderie within and between the disciplines. Throughout my 2 years, I have always been able to lean on my coworkers for guidance along with a good laugh.
If you could have one wish come true, what would it be?
I would wish for 75 degree weather year round! Or an unlimited Chipotle gift card 😬
