Born and raised in San Diego, I have always loved being active and grew up doing dancing and swimming. Through sports injuries, I fell in love with learning about the body and human movement, and knew that I wanted to be in the rehabilitation field. I completed both my Bachelors degree in Kinesiology and my Doctorate in Physical Therapy at San Diego State University, and performed sports biomechanics research for injury prevention for the men’s basketball team and adaptive wheelchair athletes.

While completing my doctorate, I pursued certifications in Applied Functional Science and pelvic floor therapy. I am Level 1 certified in Pelvic Floor function and have extensive training in functional GI health, nervous system regulation, and men’s and women’s health. My post-graduate studies have included specialized manual therapy to address inflammation via hands-on techniques, and I’m passionate about providing a holistic approach to healing that is specially tailored to my patients’ needs and goals.

My happy place is swimming in the ocean and I love spending time with family and friends. I wholeheartedly believe movement is medicine and I’m excited to help you on your rehabilitation journey!
