I am pursuing a career in physical therapy because I have always been passionate about movement, performance, and helping people return to the activities that make life meaningful. My background in strength and conditioning has shown me how powerful it can be to build confidence through movement, and physical therapy allows me to take that passion even further by helping individuals recover, regain independence, and improve their quality of life.

As a DPT student, I hope to become a clinician who not only understands the science of rehabilitation, but also values the relationships built with each patient. I am grateful for the support of the imPacT FUND because it helps make this journey possible and encourages me to continue growing into a compassionate, skilled, and culturally aware physical therapist who can serve diverse communities with purpose.
