I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) based in Tempe, Arizona and have practiced in the orthopedic setting, since earning my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from A.T. Still University in 2003. Since graduation, I have focused my physical therapy practice on helping injured endurance and strength-based athletes return to doing what they love to do.
I have been a competitive runner since the late 90's, completing numerous Marathons (including Boston), multiple Ultra Marathons, numerous Triathlons (3 x Ironman Finisher + 70.3 World Championships) and have a strong love for trail running, racing and endurance hiking events.
Throughout the years of pursuing my own athletic goals, I've experienced relative energy deficiency (REDs), hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA), over training syndrome (OTS), burnout, injury, and severe self-doubt. I meld my knowledge as a physical therapist + endurance coach with experience in working with athletes with REDs/Eating Disorders(ED)/Disordered Eating (DE) to help athletes find a sustainable path towards achieving their goals.
