“As a certified athletic trainer at DCHS my primary duties include outpatient clinical rehabilitation and working with student athletes and athletic programs at Florence High School. By working in the concussion clinic and assisting with a variety of sporting events in the area, I also care for several other Dickinson County athletes. Being born and raised in Gladstone; I am thrilled for the opportunity to begin my professional career while remaining in the Upper Peninsula. Having spent the past four years working with collegiate athletes at Northern Michigan University, I am excited for the opportunity and new challenges that come along with working with youth athletes. DCHS is known for their reputation of providing safe sport and exceptional care for all patients and athletes, and I am honored to be a part of such a well-known and reputable program.”

"I have been honored to become part of the DCHS Sports Medicine Team! My duties thus far have primarily been assisting the other athletic trainers within the team with their duties at their respective high schools and within the clinic itself. My career so far has been a very fulfilling one. It began with managing a satellite sports medicine clinic at Western Michigan University as a graduate assistant, moving myself out to Washington state after graduation to work within a physical therapy clinic and outreach as the Head ATC at Timberline High School, and finally working as an orthopedic technician within a private orthopedic practice. It is such a privilege to be able to bring the skill sets I have obtained and grown upon back into the community that helped build me into the professional I have become today. Having been a patient within the DCHS physical therapy department myself, it is amazing to witness how much the system has grown and continued providing great care to the community. I am excited and proud to help continue to build this phenomenal program."
