PT, DPT

I was born and raised in the country south of Crowley. I attended elementary through high school in Crowley, then moved away for my undergraduate and graduate degrees, where I attended LSU in Baton Rouge. I received my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and then moved to Austin, TX, where I received my Doctorate in Physical Therapy! I first worked “as needed” in several different settings, including nursing homes, acute care hospitals and rehabilitation hospitals. My first full-time job was at Lafayette General Orthopedic Hospital, where I treated post-operative total joint replacements. After 4 years, I moved back to my hometown and began working downtown Crowley at Thrive! It’s a dream to be back in my hometown!

Core Values: TODAY’S THE DAY, IMPECCABLE CHARACTER, COMPETITIVE GREATNESS, BE THE LIGHT, BRING THE WOW, COMMUNICATION IS KING. 

“Motion is lotion”

I am a Physical Therapist at the Crowley location, and I treat a variety of conditions and diagnoses, including post-surgical fractures and joint replacements, neck and back pain, shoulder pathologies, balance impairments, and generalized weakness, just to name a few.

I want to help with patients with any personal goals that they want to achieve with therapy – whether it be returning to sport or caring for their grandkids. I want to be able to help them achieve their specific goal by overcoming their pain, aches, etc.

The staff here in Crowley makes this clinic so much fun! We truly enjoy coming to work and spending time here, which is such a positive environment to treat patients in.
