Anna is a Physical Therapist Assistant who earned an Associate’s degree in Physical Therapist Assisting from Clarkson College and an Associate of Liberal Arts from Grace University. She has completed additional training in performance enhancement for the upper and lower extremities and is a Fitness Athlete Level 1. With seven years of experience, including orthopedic, pediatric, and aquatic therapies, Anna has a special interest in knees, low back conditions, and sports injuries.

Anna’s path to physical therapy began during some time off from nursing school, when she watched her grandfather go through physical therapy while battling Parkinson’s disease. She found his rehab so interesting that she enrolled in the physical therapist assistant program at Clarkson instead of continuing with nursing, and she quickly learned that therapy was her niche. Although she now works in sports and orthopedic rehab, patients with Parkinson’s and stroke will always have a soft spot in her heart.

As a clinician, Anna likes to celebrate the small victories throughout a patient’s rehab.

Anna is a Nebraska native who grew up on a farm outside of Murdock. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her family and doing embroidery.
