I love helping children meet their fullest potential. I enjoy finding fun and exciting ways to promote fitness, health and function for children of all ages while also working with the families to engage everyone in a healing environment. I aim to see every patient as the individual they are and meet them where they are to best address their needs. My area of special interest is in pediatric care. Outside of work, I enjoy exercising and being outside with my family.

I became a clinician because I consider my role a privilege to help clients gain and regain participation in their life roles. I believe in a Life Participation approach to care involving the client and their support system. My areas of clinical interest are adult language and cognition following stroke, brain injury, or other disease processes such as dementia. When I'm not at work, I enjoy being outside, spending time with family and trying new restaurants.
