Tell us about your family! Amazing parents that just recently started enjoying the retired life last year. One older sister and my crazy nephew. He is growing like a weed and smart as a whip. My incredible husband who is currently going to school for elementary education while working with kids after school and selling Scentsy on the side. I also have a whole cluster of crazy amazing in-laws. I am so grateful for the wonderful support system I have been blessed with.
What are your favorite hobbies or activities? I am very musical at heart spending nearly all of my life singing in choirs or solo and dancing.
Why did you choose PT? Why do you like working at CSSPT? I had a dance teacher in high school who was a PT and was amazed at how she was able to combine and share her passions with everyone. It intrigued me how I was able to look at dance and how the body moves, but to also know about how to make it more efficient. I love working at CSSPT because the team is truly inspiring. Always looking for new learning opportunities and sharing their knowledge. I have been able to apply the many approaches and techniques I have learned to truly feel that I have made a difference in someone’s life.
What are your favorite types of patients to treat or areas of interest? I have taken a lot of continuing education in manual therapy, so this has become a passion of mine as it can be applied to any patient. I also have a passion to treat dancers. As a dancer myself, I feel a special connection to treating this type of population and have started taking continuing education in this area as well.
What is your favorite exercise? “The 5-way hip” It attacks every hip muscle to build overall hip strength and stability in a non-weightbearing position.

What’s playing on your ipod? Right now, actually playing Film scores radio on Pandora (Playing Tchaikovsky 1812 Festival Overture For Orchestra in E Flat Major), but my ipod is loaded with the Divergent series- playing Insurgent when on my commute.
What’s your favorite workout song? Favorite Workout song for the moment would be “Show Me How You Burlesque”. I just gives me this great burst of energy whenever it pops up in my mix, especially when I am running.
