I was drawn to the field of physical therapy after undergoing physical therapy-guided treatment for my own shoulder and knee injuries. I enjoy partnering with clients and empowering them to take an active role in their recovery. I believe in educating clients and creating treatment plans personalized to each individual situation. Aside from physical therapy, I enjoy writing, reading, gaming and spending time with my wife and dog. My personal sports background includes participating in Jiu-jitsu, submission wrestling, Judo tournaments, as well as more casual distance running and obstacle course races.

UNC Health contracts with most health insurance companies including, but not limited to, the ones listed here. While we do our best to keep this list up-to-date, it often changes. Professional fees charged by care providers and organizations who are not employed, owned or managed by UNC Health may not be included under the same insurance contracts and may bill separately. Before scheduling your appointment, please contact the organization or care provider in charge of delivering these services as they may be able to help you identify who will be providing these services. Your insurance company can help to determine which specific services, locations and providers are covered by your plan as well as provide you with information regarding co-payments, deductibles or any additional charges that may be your responsibility. UNC Health makes no representation or guarantee of benefits or coverage. Services not covered by your insurance company will be your responsibility.
