I proudly grew up an Evansville westsider and graduated from F.J. Reitz High School in 2017. I then attended the University of Evansville (UE) for my bachelor’s in Exercise Science and for my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Growing up, I played tennis competitively both at school and at the Evansville Tennis Center.

Experience: I have experience working with orthopedic, post-operative, pediatric, geriatric, pelvic floor, and neurologic conditions. I am certified in pelvic floor rehabilitation through Herman and Wallace.

Core Values:

•  Faith, Respect, Authenticity, and Compassion

I am a Physical therapist. Something patients have to deal with that I would like to fix is that I am a huge advocate for the idea that aging does not have to equal pain. I love making a difference in someone’s life by decreasing their chronic or arthritic pain. Additionally, I continually advocate for pelvic floor rehabilitation services for those who believe their minimal leakage or pelvic pain are “normal” as PT can help these concerns.

My favorite conditions to treat are chronic low back pain, hip pain, neck pain/cervical headaches, pelvic floor dysfunction, balance/deconditioning, and neurological diagnoses.

My favorite part about working here as a Physical Therapist is the unique ability to connect with patients one-on-one to dive deeper into knowing my patient as a whole. At Ervin Physical Therapy, our one-on-one sessions provide this opportunity perfectly. I love connecting with patients and learning about their hobbies, families, and work to further understand their overall goals with therapy.

Outside of work, I enjoy playing tennis and walking my dog, Jenny. I also enjoy watching basketball (UE Aces and Louisville Cardinals), baseball (Evansville Otters and St. Louis Cardinals), and football (Evansville Reitz and Green Bay Packer’s). I have proudly been a “Big” through Big Brother Big Sister in Evansville since 2017. Additionally, I am active in my church through Vacation Bible School and Sunday children’s nursery.
