I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, and earned my undergraduate degree from Washington State University. In 2022, I moved to Arizona to pursue my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree at Creighton University. In school, I was fortunate to have worked on the Navajo Nation, as well as in women’s health and pediatrics. I have always been passionate about working with children, through roles working at a daycare, nannying, and providing respite care. Outside of school and work, I enjoy playing intramural soccer, paddle boarding, crocheting, and spending quality time with friends and family.
