I am a pelvic floor physical therapist that is passionate about women receiving the appropriate education and medical treatment that they deserve in regards to pelvic floor dysfunction. I graduated from the East Tennessee State University Physical Therapy Program in 2016. After graduation I worked in private orthopedic clinics in San Diego, CA and also worked in home health with the geriatric population. My husband had a job change which brought us to Charlotte, NC where I gained additional experience in home health pediatrics, and began working with women's health shortly after that.
Here are a few of my certifications through Herman & Wallace Pelvic Rehabilitation Institute:
-Pregnancy & Postpartum Rehabilitation
-Doula Services and Pelvic Rehab Services
-Athletes and Pelvic Rehabilitation
-Manual Therapy for the Abdominal Wall
-Pelvic Floor 1A & 2B Certifications
I am also certified as a Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist through CES and Dry Needling Certified through AAOMPT.
I was born and raised in Crossville, TN and attended East Tennessee State University for my Exercise Science degree. I also attended received my doctorate of physical therapy from ETSU as well. Running and obstacle course racing used to be my passion! I have completed multiple half marathons, completed the Spartan Trifectas, and so many Tough Mudders I've lost count :) However we had a small lifestyle changed when we had kids, and made our home in Knoxville, TN.
When I am not working, I am spending every waking moment with my little family! My husband and I just welcomed our daughter, Izabel, into the world, and I have a 3 year old son who keeps us on our toes. We also have 3 fur babies, Klaus (the cat), Arya (the spoiled german shepherd), and Kal (our goofy belgian malinois).
