I have served in my hometown of Vilonia on the School Board for the past 3 years, and as the President of the School Board for 2 years. I enjoy participating in school leadership, administration, and shaping the policies of the school district. I have also served in my church as the Education Director for the past 19 years. I volunteer twice a month in Maumelle at the Center on the Lake doing presentations on healthcare topics and providing free Physical Therapy Assessments to their members that need assistance. I also enjoy giving presentations for church groups and community organizations.
I became interested in Physical Therapy in high school after having three meniscus surgeries on my knees. I learned early how Physical Therapists help patients achieve their individual goals. I have used those experiences to continue to keep my focus on our patient’s personal goals. I enjoy helping patients return to work, recreational activities, and their functional needs. I value personal relationships and treating others as I would like to be treated. I have been with Baptist Health for 14 years, and I have been in the Maumelle facility for 7 years where I currently serve as the Clinic Manager. I have been married to my wife, Brittany, for 20 years, and we have two amazing daughters, Lindsey (12) and Abby (8).
