Âé¶¹¾«Æ· Me
I am a North Dakota native, growing up in Hazelton, ND. I attended the Âé¶¹¾«Æ· and graduated with my Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2016. I am married to my wife, Tasha, who is a graduate of the Âé¶¹¾«Æ· in occupational therapy. We have 3 boys — Noah, Cohen, and Leo. I am a Board-Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist, a Fellow of the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapists, and hold a Doctor of Science in Physical Therapy. In my free time, I enjoy staying active through running, hiking, and golfing while spending time with my family and friends.
Why I’m At Âé¶¹¾«Æ·The Âé¶¹¾«Æ· holds a very special place in my heart. I completed my education at the Âé¶¹¾«Æ· for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees.
