About

I'm a physical therapist, author, and educator in Chicago. My work centers on biomechanics, applied neuroscience, and clinical reasoning — particularly how clinicians learn to observe movement, organize complex findings, and decide what matters first.

Treating the site of pain rarely explains the actual problem. Biomechanics is the foundation, but joints don't produce movement on their own: sensory input, prior experience, pain, motor strategy, and the demands of the task are all in it.

I've written two books, taught continuing education in more than twenty states, worked in professional sport, and I'm currently a PhD student in Physical Therapy at Loma Linda University — where the doctoral work continues the same project of formally studying the questions practice keeps producing.
