**huge shoutout to everyone at WellSpan for shaping my career and who I am today as a therapist
Want to know more? Ok – so I’m a physical therapist based in Mt. Lebanon, just south of Pittsburgh. I moved here in January 2024 from my hometown of York, PA—but in many ways, it felt like coming back to a second home. I went to Duquesne and had been missing Pittsburgh ever since.
Outside of being a therapist, I enjoy camping, hunting, cooking, lifting weights, and running. I’m big on living a healthy, fulfilling life—getting outside, sleeping well, eating whole foods, staying active, and spending time with good people. My family’s still in York—my younger brother Brad, my parents, and my grandmother—and I visit when I can.
I started Mobile Physio because I wanted to do things differently. After years in traditional therapy settings, I was burned out by the nonstop appointments and constant documentation. That model made it hard to truly connect with patients or give them the full attention they deserved. So I decided to build something better.
With Mobile Physio, I bring physical therapy directly to people’s homes, where we can focus on what matters most—your care. No computers open, no note-typing during your session. Just meaningful, person-centered therapy.
I also wanted to create something proactive—not just therapy for recovery, but therapy to help you stay strong, mobile, and independent. That’s why I offer both rehabilitative and ongoing maintenance fitness services for those who want to stay ahead of the curve.
And beyond that, I like to make things happen. If you need a specific piece of equipment or a connection to another provider, I’ll dig deep and go the extra mile to find answers and get things done.
Neuro is my favorite realm of physical therapy. My love for neuro rehab really took off during the year I spent as the lead PT on WellSpan Surgery and Rehab Center’s brain injury unit in 2018–2019. That place is the Taj Mahal of rehab centers, and the team there—shout out to them—shaped me into the therapist I am today. Working with people recovering from brain injuries, strokes, spinal cord injuries, Parkinson’s, MS, and more pushed me to get creative—not just with interventions, but also with how I communicated and supported families. These patients need more than standard care—they need a teammate. That mindset still drives how I approach every patient, no matter the condition.
Just wanted to give you a sense of who I am before we meet. Hope to talk soon.
