I am a student in the Physical Therapy program at Bellarmine University in Louisville, Kentucky. My hometown is Morton, Illinois. With my Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science I graduated from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville in Edwardsville, Illinois. I played four years on the Women’s Soccer team for the SIUE Cougars. During my undergraduate experience I had the privilege of completing an Internship at UnityPoint Health Methodist in Peoria, Illinois in the Cardio Pulmonary Rehabilitation Department. I had the honor to observe physical therapy in variety settings in a hospital, nursing home, and outpatients clinics. I am open to exploring the different practice areas of physical therapy.
