Having a passion for healthcare, I am dedicated to prioritizing patients needs over my own. It has been my aspiration to contribute and serve as a physical therapist assistant to help others, to achieve their personal goals and returning them to optimal health.Having spent the past several building a firm knowledge base education mixed with experience, the scope of skills I have acquired continue to expand. As a goal driven individual, I started my career path serving in our nation's Air Force, where I utilized intensive data analysis, leadership skills, and organized strategies to further missions. While serving my country, I had the opportunity of being a physical training leader for an entire squadron for three years. My duty was to prepare every Airman to be deployment ready physically, with an unwavering mental grit, in order to achieve the highest level of physical performance possible. It was a honor to have that responsibility and succeeded all expectations put upon me.As a professional in the physical therapy career field, I will have the same mindset that has driven me to success in all endeavors in life. The Air force engraved three core values that I will abide by for the rest of my life. 1. Integrity first, 2. Service before self, and 3. Excellence in all we do. Looking forward to making a positive impact in the lives of others as I pursue a healthcare career in physical therapy.
