Director

Clayton, NC|

I attended UNC Chapel Hill for undergrad and earned my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Methodist University in Fayetteville, NC where I met my husband while he was stationed at Fort Bragg. While at UNC, I was a strength and conditioning coordinator for the women’s basketball and men’s lacrosse team. I am passionate about working with athletes and other orthopedic populations and aspire to obtain my Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS).  I am also Myofascial Trigger Point Dry Needling certified. During my free time,  I enjoy being in the gym, hiking or walking with my dog, and listening to live music.

Clinical Experience

I have worked in multiple settings and treated patients wanting to return to recreational sports, post-stroke, spinal cord injury, and brain injury in a rehab hospital. I have enjoyed all the different populations I have worked with and am excited to continue developing as a PT here as Access PT.

I enjoy being able to connect with my patients on a personal level and develop a plan of care that is not only going to improve their mobility and their current complaints, but also a plan of care that will improve their quality of life. I feel we play such a crucial role in health care and it is humbling to know the impact we can have on our patients.

I currently live in Raleigh, NC and enjoy running, exploring downtown Raleigh with my boyfriend, and any activity that involves being outside.
