I am a licensed Physical Therapist and a certified Pilates Mat and Reformer Instructor. I work with clients spanning all ages and movement backgrounds by combining my Physical Therapy education, Pilates training, and extensive training in manual therapy and soft tissue techniques including Active Release Technique, myofascial release, and instrument assisted soft tissue release. 

​

Learning is one of the most powerful tools for success! I constantly seek out new learning opportunities to augment my clinical practice, including specialized training:

​

• Folsom Physical Therapy Orthopedic Manual Therapy Long-Term Course (1.5-year post-graduate study completed twice; 2014-2015 and 2023-2024)

• Pilates (Mat 1-2, Reformer 1-3, and Apparatus 1) through Balanced Body

• Active Release Technique Lower Extremity Level 1

• Advanced courses in Vestibular, Balance and Post-Concussion Rehabilitation

• Myofascial Release

• Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) including Gua Sha and Cupping

• Advanced courses in sports injury and post-surgical rehabilitation

• Kinesio taping

​

I opened my practice in Auburn in 2018. Prior to that, I worked as a Physical Therapist at Body Concepts Inc. in Folsom. I have recently joined the team at Movement Shift PT and Performance and am so excited to serve the communities of Auburn, Folsom, Roseville and Granite Bay at this location. 

 

I was a synchronized swimmer for 15 years with the Auburn Mermaids and returned as an assistant coach. I also enjoyed soccer, tennis, and pole vaulting while I attended Placer High School.

My high school sweetheart, now husband, and I love to camp, kayak, hike, and road trip. We had a baby boy in 2020 and life has been extra fulfilling ever since!
