I have been a long-time patient at Spine Arts Center and I am so excited to be a part of the team as a Chiropractor Assistant! I have grown up in Springfield, VA my whole life. I studied at Liberty University and received my bachelor’s degree in Human Services. One day I hope to work in the Humanitarian Aid field and travel around the world helping people in need. In my free time I love being out in nature and going on hikes with my dog. I also love reading and watching movies or shows with my friends and family. I have benefited so much from Chiropractic care myself and I hope to help others benefit from it as well.
