“My interest in Physical Therapy and Athletic Training began when I became an avid and successful athlete in college. By graduation, I had attained honors as an All-Conference, All-state, All-region and Adidas Academic All-America Athlete. I saw athletes get injured and then witnessed their full recoveries through Physical Therapy.
