Biography:
I have practiced pediatric physical therapy for 26 years in pediatric hospitals, outpatient programs, rehab centers, home based and school based settings.

I have functioned as senior PT of a pediatric burn center, a clinical director for a large pediatric rehabilitation center, set up pediatric PT programs in county hospitals, and directed PT services in a school system. I have practiced extensively in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

I completed my clinical research for my thesis examining preterm infant kicking patterns and posture.

I came to MU, my alma mater, in 1999 to teach.

I serve on the CSM program committee of the Pediatric Section of the APTA.
