Academic Interests I developed and have worked to maintain the Athletic Training Emphasis into a state of the art program. I hope to provide the student with the knowledge and skills needed for the practice of Athletic Training in an evolving professional health care environment. I have attempted to influence the Athletic Training student in the development of a professional philosophy that will focus on providing a scientific based, hands-on approach to the practice of Athletic Training in the traditional setting. I am interested in encouraging Athletic Training Accreditation students to consider attending Physical Therapy school after attaining their Athletic Training education.

I am interested in exploring and teaching the basis and practice of Therapeutic Exercise and Joint Mobilization Techniques. Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation is my major area of expertise in Therapeutic Exercise. I teach courses in PNF locally, nationally and internationally. Prevention of Athletic Injuries is an area of interest as well. I have also focused on Emergency Field Care of Athletic Injuries. An additional interest is the medical effects of Athlete travel. I am active in the research arena of Vestibular Physical Therapy and Myokinematic.

I also maintain my Physical Therapy knowledge and skills by working as a Physical Therapist in Clinical and Hospital Physical Therapy facilities in Orthopecics, Sports Medicine and Vestibular Physical Therapy.. Examples of my work in these areas of interest follows.
