As an orthopaedic physical therapy resident, I independently managed a caseload of 30 patient care hours per week, while receiving over 100 hours of direct and indirect mentoring from experienced faculty. Throughout this experience, I developed and presented 7 critically appraised topic presentations and also taught more than 60 hours in the Doctor of Physical Therapy program in the role of a clinical instructor, lecturer, and lab instructor for various classes. Forming a novel research question and study design and completing an IRB-approved capstone project for submission to the combined sections meeting was also a large part of this experience.

Working on my final rotation as a physical therapy student, I completed a 9-week acute care experience. During this experience I independently managed highly complex patients with a wide variety of orthopaedic, cardiovascular, pulmonary, and neurological impairments. I worked on a wide variety of floors, but primarily spent time in the cardiovascular, surgical, and transplant intensive care units.
