At Next Level Neuro , my vision is simple:

To make the rehab journey less overwhelming and more empowering—for patients, families, and clinicians.

For clinicians, that means creating a space where you can grow in your neuro practice without feeling lost or alone. Whether you’re a new grad or navigating complex cases, I’m here to help you build confidence, sharpen your clinical reasoning, and cultivate curiosity, all while finding joy in the process of learning and connecting with others.

For patients and families, it means having a trusted guide to help navigate the twists and turns of rehab, discharge planning, equipment decisions, and the everyday “what do we do now?” questions that often go unanswered. My goal is to provide clear guidance, a listening ear, and the confidence to take ownership of your health journey.

At its heart, Next Level Neuro is about connection — bridging the gap between evidence and real life, supporting the people who need care, and empowering those who provide it. It’s a place to learn, grow, ask questions, and discover solutions together.

I’m a board-certified neurologic clinical specialist with nine years of experience across inpatient and outpatient settings. My curiosity for neuro rehab was sparked during my residency at Mayo Clinic in 2019, where I realized how much I love learning, understanding, and being able to teach complex concepts in ways that make sense for real people.

That curiosity became the foundation for Next Level Neuro, a space where I explore the intersections of learning, teaching, and human connection. I thrive on helping clinicians think critically, patients and families feel empowered, and everyone find clarity amid the complexities of neuro rehab.

I earned my EdD from the University of North Dakota in 2023, focusing on patient education in neurologic PT. I’ve taught in DPT programs at the University of Vermont, Nazareth University, and South College, and helped build a neuro residency at University of Rochester Strong Memorial Hospital, mentoring residents along the way.

My work blends evidence, creativity, and curiosity, whether breaking down complex movements, refining handling techniques, or finding ways to make neuro rehab less intimidating and more accessible. At its heart, my mission is to inspire growth, connection, and confidence — for clinicians, patients, and families alike.
