Physical Therapist and Engineer

|
Liz was raised in western Kentucky, Paducah. She then played soccer at TN Tech while pursuing an engineering degree. She finished her engineering degree at the University of Kentucky. After taking a year off of school, she completed her doctor of PT at the University of Kentucky. Many reasons lead to the switch from engineering to PT.
From being an athlete from a very young age including kayaking, mountain biking, and horseback riding, she has had to deal with injuries and different pains. Her mother was a PT and always helped get he back to the sport as quickly as possible while still factoring in her long and healthy life. One of the biggest injuries landed her two different weeks in the hospital. She understands the need and drive to get back. After 8 months of PT she was back competing in freestyle kayaking. She has had to do PT for many injuries including several mountain bike crashes. |

The great thing about Liz is that she understand the movement patterns of each individual sport and the mechanics of it. With her engineering background and her life long love of these sports, she can help you ride the trail, the water, the horse sooner.
She has a wonderful support system of her family including her husband and dog. She loves living in the blue ridge mountains.
