Growing up in a small town, I found myself wanting to find a way to interact with and have a positive impact on the community around me. Through injuries of my own, I had the opportunity to see the impact a physical therapist could have during some of the hardest times in a patient’s life. As I started to learn more about what physical therapists did for people in all age ranges, I fell more and more in love with the opportunity to meet and help those around me in a holistic, active manner.
