I grew up in a small town about an hour outside of Pittsburgh called Hookstown, PA. I graduated with a bachelors degree in Biology from The University of Pittsburgh. Shortly after, I moved to Buffalo, NY where I earned a Doctorate of Chiropractic from D’Youville University. After I graduated, I moved back to Pittsburgh- not only to escape the dreadful Buffalo winters, but because Pittsburgh is home.​

My journey to becoming a chiropractor started with severe, daily tension headaches that had been going on for about 2 years. I got to the point where I didn’t know where to turn in the standard healthcare system. So, I decided to try chiropractic care. It took about 2 treatments to figure out how life-changing it was! I immediately wondered why no one had recommended it to me sooner. It quickly became my mission to provide this type of relief to people struggling with the same life-altering pain I had experienced.
