In 2023, I gained experience working with professional athletes and U.S. Special Forces as a Performance Physical Therapy Intern at EXOS Sports Performance. My clinical focus centers on providing innovative care to athletic patient populations by integrating orthopedic rehabilitation with sports performance to enhance the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of athletic injuries and movement dysfunction.
