Jackie is very excited to be part of the Inspired Wellness team. She received her B.S. in physical therapy in 1997 from Marquette University. She continued in her studies to receive a Masters in Health Science in P.T. from the University of Indianapolis. She began her career at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago and has worked in a variety of settings, treating both adults and children. Her proudest professional accomplishment was to help establish The Center for Independence through Conductive Education. The Center is a multidisciplinary setting, which provides intensive group motor therapy to help children with cerebral palsy attain functional independence. Jackie was fortunate to find inspired wellness and all the wonderful people there while rehabbing from an injury.
