I am originally from Helena, MT. I pursued my undergraduate degree from Carroll College in 2007 and then went on to attend Physical Therapy School at University of Montana. Upon graduation from University of Montana in 2012, I worked at Benefis Health System as an Outpatient/Acute Care Physical Therapist for 2 years. I then moved in 2012 with my husband to the family farm and ranch, and began working as an outpatient physical therapist at CMMC Judith Peak Rehab in Lewistown, and CMMC Basin Physical Therapy in Stanford, MT. Since working at CMMC, I have been an integral part in developing our Central Montana Sports Enhancement Program in Lewistown and Stanford. I reside on the family farm and ranch with my husband and 3 children. I enjoy serving a rural community with diverse needs.
