Bio

I am a certified Vocational Services Specialist who is passionate about helping injured workers return to work and the activities they love after a workplace injury. Research shows that getting back to normal daily activities, including work, is part of the incremental healing process and recovery progresses quickly and successfully when there is a combination of early mobilization treatment and increasing transitions back to a normal way of living; return to work is a reasonable and ideal goal from the beginning of the recovery process.

I have eight years of experience with developing rehabilitation plans with clients using a worker-centric approach and always keeping their needs and goals in the forefront. Simultaneously and harmoniously balancing healing, treatments, and work are the key to remaining active and reducing disability in the workers comp system. My goal is to work with clients to find that particular balance for them and help achieve their goals and remove barriers that may be preventing them from returning to their regular daily activities and routines.
