The WHY behind Fly Performance Physical Therapy

I founded Fly Performance Physical Therapy to help people improve their health span through all of the physical changes life presents.

I got into physical therapy because I wanted to help people. But along the way, I realized the traditional system didn’t always give people what they actually needed to get better — and, honestly, that slowly wore me down.

I saw too many people finish their six weeks of insurance-approved physical therapy without feeling confident in what came next. They might feel better, but they didn’t always have the support, tools, or plan to keep getting better.

That’s what led me here.

Fly Performance Physical Therapy represents striving toward a stronger, healthier, higher version of yourself. “Fly” is also a nod to my background in swimming; While I’m in a very different chapter of life than my college swimming days, that pursuit of strength, resilience, and growth has stayed with me.

I love working with people long term — not just to recover from an injury, but to build strength, confidence, and a healthier relationship with movement. I love teaching people how strength training can support them throughout their entire lives, whether they’re getting back to a sport, starting a new chapter, or simply wanting to feel stronger in their everyday life. 

Today, I believe strength isn’t just about performance in the pool, on the field, or in the gym. It’s about building a body and mindset that allows you to show up fully for whatever chapter of life you’re in.

Most importantly, I love meeting people where they’re at. Whether you’re completely new to training or an experienced athlete, I’ll meet you there. My goal is to help you become stronger, more confident, and capable of doing the things that matter most to you.
