As a medical writer, editor, and physical therapist practicing in the San Francisco Bay Area, I have extensive knowledge about a wide variety of diagnoses, conditions, and diseases. My ongoing clinical experience gives me valuable perspective on patient care, rehabilitation, and wellness, and strengthens my resolve to provide an individualized approach to healthcare.

I am the author of the book "Naked Elbows: A Physical Therapist's Reflections on Patient Care, Intuition, and Healing," a medical narrative that tours the body from head to toe, exploring the personal and professional aspects of patient care from the other side of the treatment table.

Over the years I have written numerous continuing education courses for health professionals, articles for human and veterinary medicine, and have provided peer reviews for medical journals, textbooks, and physical therapy publications. I am also the former editor of Today in PT magazine, a Gannett Healthcare Group publication, breathing the magazine to life from its initial launch through the first three years of circulation. During my stewardship of Today in PT, I authored a weekly blog and a monthly column that reflected on evidence-based practice and the special interaction that occurs between therapist and patient.

My speaking experience includes presentingWorkstation Wellness: Stay-Fit Strategies for Medical Writers" at the American Medical Writers Association 2009 Pacific Coast Conference at Asilomar, participating in the HealthTalk radio program and Webcast, and appearing as a freelance panelist for UC Berkeley Extension and the Northern California Chapter of the American Medical Writers Association.
