"When I read about Health Carousel, I found out that their approach to their employees was immediate and effective. That being said, having quality on their work drew me in."What do you like most about working with our client? "Pediatrics are exceptionally inspiring clients to work with. In our setting, every developmental milestone feels like it merits an accolade. Behind every first step and every new skill, is the hard work of the parents, brothers, sisters, and children I work with. Physical therapy exercises are hard. The recovery process is sometimes a slow one. With kids, no small victory goes unnoticed. I have observed many children's first steps, and I was right next to their parents beaming with pride. Do you know that feeling when you learned to drive a bicycle for the first time without any help? I get to witness kids and parents experiencing something like that, every day."What do you like to do outside of work? "During my spare time, I enjoy running, playing basketball, hiking, and lifting weights. During the week I like to hit the gym before I go to bed. During the weekend my friends and I usually play basketball. I sometimes hike with my friends if we have ample amount of time to do so."What do you love most about being a PT? "Physical therapy is an exciting career, and physical therapists can truly pursue endless specialization paths. From sports, pediatrics, to geriatrics, as a physical therapist I can carve my career alongside with my passions. "What is your favorite American food?
