I grew up in the mountains outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico where I enjoyed spending time outside hiking, camping, hunting, biking and snowboarding. When not outside my time was spent training in martial arts and competing at an international level in TaeKwonDo. After graduating high school I attended the University of New Mexico in which I received my bachelors degree in biology and psychology. After completing my undergraduate education I completed my doctorate in physical therapy at the University of Mary in Bismarck, North Dakota.
After completing my doctoral education, my family and I moved to rural Montana where I was able to practice and hone my skills as a therapist working with individuals across the lifespan. I was able to work with outdoor athletes (hunters, hikers, runners, and snowmobilers), weekend warriors, crossfitters, gymnasts, highschool athletes, and those who wanted to get back to daily activities without restriction. Being a primary care provider in a rural area helped solidify the importance of treating the whole person including nutrition, sleep, mental health and not just the physical ailments that they are experiencing.
After four years in Montana my family and I decided to move back to Bismarck where I worked in multiple settings before deciding to open my own clinic. This decision came from the desire to provide individuals with the highest level of one on one care helping them to take control of their health. My goal is to help patients alleviate pain, increase performance and assist them in becoming the best version of themselves through increased knowledge in various areas of patient care including strength and conditioning, manual therapy, dry needling and pain science. I enjoy working with clients of all ages and impairments but have a high interest in outdoor athletes, especially archery hunters.
When not in the clinic, I enjoy being outdoors with my wife and two children camping, hiking and hunting. I also enjoy participating in Crossfit and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
