Biography
Why did you pursue a career in physical therapy?
Throughout my childhood I was active in athletics and had a few injuries along the way. I knew at a young age I wanted to work with children in some way, and as I learned about the physical therapy profession in high school I had a strong desire to work with children with their physical impairments/limitations.
