Background

I joined the Sports Medicine team in 2014 and work at our Bucks county location. Prior to joining CHOP I worked as an orthopaedic physical therapist with adults and adolescents for 12 years in private practice and hospital-based settings in Washington State and the Philadelphia area.

I am a clinical assistant in Temple University’s Physical Therapy program and adjunct faculty at Arcadia University’s Physical Therapy program.

My areas of interest include management and prevention of running injuries and concussions and the use of manual therapy in the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions.
