Had the honor and pleasure of being nominated to speak at @Ivyrehab’s Directors Summit this past weekend. Cannot put into words how grateful and excited I am to be in a position where I can advocate for both our profession and Pediatric Rehab & Therapies as a whole. #ChoosePT

What an honor! Proud to be a part of the Little Steps Family :)

Beyond thrilled to announce I have been named Director of the Little Steps PT Ravenswood Clinic. Far from the finish line, job’s not done yet!! Extremely proud nonetheless #ChoosePT #PedsPT

@mpascoe @Dr_Ridge_DPT It’s an honor, I promise the year I stop learning is the year I stop teaching. This is just the beginning!!!

As if today couldn’t get any better, just received this! 🤩

Moments like these simply never get old #FirstSteps #ChoosePT #PedsPT

After a long summer of studying I can proudly say I have officially passed Boards!!! What an incredible feeling!

One of my patients had brain surgery this morning, her Mom emailed me to say that not only was the surgery a success, but that she’s already up and walking around! Modern medicine is incredible!!

@durand_lindsay Congratulations!!

Feels surreal to say, but this fall I will be returning to Northwestern to join the gross anatomy team. Absolutely cannot wait to help start educating our future colleagues!!!

One of my patients walked without an assistive device today for the first time EVER. #ChoosePT #LetKidsBeKids

Work doesn’t feel like work when you love what you do

I have been waiting three years to change that S to a D, I am officially a Doctor of Physical Therapy!! I am living my literal dream :)

How it started: How it’s going:

RT @TheresaMarkoPT: How seeing a physical therapist first tackles the opioid crisis #ChoosePT

Getting texts like this completely out of the blue, a tale as old as time lol

The end of one chapter seamlessly flows into the beginning of the next: Extremely proud to announce that I will be joining the Little Steps family as a Pediatric Physical Therapist upon the completion of my DPT education. Here’s to helping kids be kids, one step at a time!!

So far in my experience preparing and working with the pediatric population I’ve found that the most useful tools in my toolbox are enthusiasm and positive reinforcement. Set your patients up for success to build confidence. A smile can go a long way!!! #Pediatrics #PedsPT

The first step in the return to normalcy. Trust science!!
