PHYSICAL THERAPIST

I was raised in Gig Harbor, WA and graduated from Gig Harbor High School. After receiving a BS in Psychology from the University of Washington, I obtained a Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of Puget Sound. I have lived in Tacoma since graduating to remain close to my family and the community in which I was raised. I have 13+ years of experience in outpatient and sports physical therapy and offer a multimodal approach that allows individualized care to my patients. I utilize a combination of manual therapy, dry needling and exercise to address specific impairments in order to restore function and achieve the big picture goals for my patients. I have a passion for working with athletes of all ages with special interests in golf, soccer, football and overhead athletes. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and 2 children. Some of our favorite family time is spent traveling, biking, boating, fishing and swimming. I really enjoy golfing and I am an avid sports fan. Football is at the top of the sports viewing list and I love attending Husky football games in the fall.
