“I have wanted to have a career in sports medicine since I was 16 years old and was first introduced to the field. To be able to think critically and functionally about a patient’s condition and work WITH the patient to achieve their goals is why I love what I do. I get fulfillment out of each interaction I have with a patient or athlete and attempt to make a positive difference in their lives.”
