My favorite part about working with people is being able to listen to and connect with them. I find that attentive, personal interactions foster the best understanding of what people need in terms of our care. Once a course of care is settled upon, I love working together with people to reach their goals. At the end of the day, my own goal is to achieve the best fit to help people reach their full potential.

I’ve always loved helping people achieve their goals. My education journey started in college, at St. Xavier University. There, I was a personal trainer working with people with spinal cord injuries and amputees who had sports-specific goals. While obtaining a master’s degree in orthotics and prosthetics at Northwestern University, I came to understand how deeply I enjoyed working with newer technology in my practice.

Ultimately, it’s working with people that I love most. My favorite part about working with people is being able to listen and connect. At Limb Lab, I appreciate the space I’m given to forge genuinely personal interactions. I think the people we assist feel at home here, and I think that improves outcomes.

I’m a big sports guy-football specifically-but I’m a big fan of all sports. I’ve always loved focusing on sports-specific goals and have really enjoyed my time collaborating with the USA Sled Hockey team.
