Growing up in MN and being active in gymnastics in high school and college grew my interest in Physical Therapy to help prevent and treat injuries.  I attended college in a small town in MN, Gustavus Adolphus College, and graduated with majors in Distributive Sciences and Psychology.   I immediately entered Physical Therapy school at the University of MN and graduated in 1985.  Since then, I’ve pursued my passion to treat Spine, orthopedics and to help prevent and treat injured workers.  I’ve also held leadership positions during my 38-year career, but with a recent move to beautiful Colorado I intentionally returned to my original passion of solely treating patients.   I would describe myself as a lifetime learner.

My husband and I have deep roots to Colorado due to family and have really enjoyed spending more time with my siblings, children, their significant others and our first grandchild who live in Colorado!  We love being outdoors whether that’s in the Colorado mountains, the North Shore of Lake Superior or the Boundary Waters Wilderness Canoe Area.

As a patient who receives care from me, you can expect a thorough understanding of your condition, a collaborative plan for treatment and several tools to help you self-manage your condition.  I look forward to working with you!
