- 2016
- I practiced in outpatient orthopedics for about 7 years. I am currently a full-time assistant professor at Texas Woman’s University in Denton, TX. I love academia and research!
- Some words of wisdom for current DPT students are to be intentional in all aspects of practice and life. Be intentional in your classes. Be intentional in your career. Be an intentional life-long learner. Most importantly, be intentional in your relationships with your patients. You will have a significant impact on their lives and yours.
- My most fond memory at Hampton University was my graduation day May 16th, 2016. To graduate with my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree on Mother’s Day, was the best gift I could ever give my mother. A day neither one of us will forget!
