As a teacher and as a physical therapist I believe I am here to serve the needs of my students and my patients in a holistic manner, balancing the physical,intellectual and spiritual components of our lives. Teaching and sharing my love of the profession of physical therapy is my vocation. Being part of the faculty at Saint Louis University allows me to pursue my vocation and model my beliefs for future physical therapists
