Hello!
Welcome to Kaiser Permanente.
I have been with Kaiser Physical Therapy since June 2005. I work as an outpatient physical therapist and I enjoy helping people recover from a variety of musculoskeletal injuries. I also work closely with the orthopedic and physiatry departments. In January 2009, I joined the Workplace Safety Department doing ergonomic workstation evaluations. In April 2009, I received my certification as a Lymphedema Therapist.
I received my Bachelors of Science degree in Exercise Physiology from the University of California at Davis in 2002. I went on to receive my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from the University of Southern California in 2005. I have also taken a yearlong course in advanced manual therapy here at Kaiser Redwood City because I believe it is important to continue my education to better help treat my patients. I also am a member of the American Physical Therapy Association.
Since high school, I knew physical therapy is what I wanted to do with my life. I grew up playing a variety of sports including volleyball, basketball, track and field, badminton, softball and soccer. Needless to say, I, myself, had a few sports injuries and needed physical therapy. Ever since my first visit with my physical therapist I knew this is how I wanted to help people, and looking back, I know I’ve made the right career choice.
I try and incorporate sports and exercise into my treatment plan as well as use manual techniques to best treat my patients. I also integrate yoga/pilates based rehab for general flexibility and core strengthening. I encourage my patients to be hopeful and proactive with their rehabilitation and self management.
When I’m not working, I enjoy hiking, yoga, gardening, scuba diving, camping, and traveling with my husband. I have backpacked throughout Europe and I love the outdoors.
