“Growing up, I was heavily involved in athletics, playing basketball and soccer for many years.  This sparked my interest in medicine and orthopedics specifically. The teamwork aspect of sports also drew me to the PA profession, which allows for a team-centered approach to medical care. I truly enjoy working with Dr. Grier and patients to formulate individualized treatment plans that make sense and work to achieve each patient’s goals.”
