I was born and raised in Apple Valley, MN. Growing up, my life revolved around sports and playing basketball, football, and track. During undergrad, I attended the University of Minnesota Twin Cities where I played football and graduated with a B.A in Sports and Exercise Science. After accumulating multiple injuries related to football, chiropractic treatments helped me recover and I have been using chiropractic care as a treatment ever since. Following undergrad, I moved to Davenport, IA where I attended Palmer Chiropractic College, graduating in 2020.
About Me -
I was born in Hayfield, MN as the oldest of 4 siblings to parents who are both teachers. My younger years were all learn and play; with play including high school sports of football, basketball and baseball, with football continuing in college. The accumulation of sports trauma eventually lead me to a local chiropractor, which helped me to resolve injury and perform at a high level.
My parents always thought that one of the kids would be in education. Even though I never thought of myself being an educator in the classic sense, I find that a lot of my current practice involves teaching. My goal on each visit is to address what ails you, have you feeling and performing better; and also learning about what is giving you trouble and how to keep it from happening again.
Today, I continue my movement practice by chasing around our five- and three-year old sons, by being in the weight room and by playing various sports. In my free time you can find me in the in the kitchen trying to replicate a family recipe.
