    Owner, Aretas Physical Therapy Wauwatosa

    I believe that good physical therapy is one of the most powerful tools in the medical field - as the biomechanical experts we bring a level of unmatched understanding and perspective to injuries, pain or performance issues. We bridge orthopedic medicine with physical activity in a way that is truly amazing.

    Physical Therapist

    My gift and passion as a physical therapist is seeing patterns and dysfunction that others often miss—and clearly explaining the “why” behind your pain. I’m committed to empowering you to become resilient, strong, and confident in your body so you can take on all that life has to offer.

    I pride myself in grinding for my patients. I'll help you get in, make sure we get work done, advocate for you and make the entire process seamless. I love seeing baseball players, my baseball career was cut short by injury and I love teaching my patients what I wish I knew back then.

    Physical Therapist

    I value blending a sharp eye for biomechanics, a deep understanding of anatomy, and strong clinical expertise to uncover the true root of orthopedic and running-related injuries. I pair that precision with genuine connection, clear communication, and positive energy so every patient at Aretas feels understood, empowered, and equipped for lifelong recovery, performance, and lasting physical resilience.

    I love blending the science and art of physical therapy, especially the personal connections that can genuinely change someone’s everyday life. I’m driven to uncover the true root cause of your injury so you can clearly understand what’s happening and move forward with confidence.

I see patients of all ages and diagnoses, and have specialty training in balance impairments and helping to improve their stability and confidence with daily activities.
