Coming to us from Chicago, she attended graduate school in physical therapy at the University of Wisconsin-LaCrosse where she specialized in biomechanical research, injury prevention for female athletes as well as exercise and lifestyle modification for individuals with arthritic conditions. We are pleased with her decision to be a member of our team!

Her diverse experience includes coaching Ironman Tri-athletes, teaching small group Pilates classes to a collegiate population and yoga-based exercise classes to clients with neurological conditions.
