What three traits define you?

Compassionate, Hardworking, honest

What’s one thing you couldn’t live without?

My great support system through family and faith

What problems do you consistently solve for your clients?

Connecting the dots to find the root cause of their pain or chronic health issues. Help patients understand how to properly move, sit or stand to get through their busy lives without pain.

What are you complimented on most in your work?

I am a good-listener, compassionate and have a soft yet firm contact for a comfortable experience when adjusting

Who is your ideal client and why should they connect with you?

Someone who understands they can take control of their health and I can be their biggest supporter.

In your work or creative process, what concepts are sacred? Which rules have you made, which ones do you follow?

Always start with kindness because you never know what a person is struggling with.

What is your grand, audacious goal? What do you wish people would know, believe, do?

I want to help all of my patients to feel seen and heard. Having a support system is essential in the healing process. I wish people would understand that they matter and self-care is essential in obtaining optimal health.

Western suburbs

What do you do for fun in your spare time? What are your hobbies?
