Running doesnโ€™t need to suck and it doesnโ€™t need to be painful, Healthy Runner Academy is going to be created to change that!

โ€œWe must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for usโ€

19 yearsโ€ฆ1200+ PT studentsโ€ฆitโ€™s been a great journey โ€ช@QuinnipiacUโ€ฌ

I have had the pleasure of helping to shape the next generation of physical therapists on a part time basis for 10 years and as a full time professor for the past 9 years.

I take great pride in making sure our students are โ€œclinic readyโ€ and I am so proud of my former students accomplishments as professionals making a difference in this ๐ŸŒŽ

Career trajectory is like real estate: Making a move yesterday would have been best, today is good, tomorrow might be too late.

If you see an opportunity before it has come into focus for the masses, make your move. Do it scared, but do it now. The future rewards the brave!

That is why I have decided spend 100% of my time and effort on my passion in serving the running community.

To QUPT and all my former students, thank you for providing me the opportunity to do what I love.

Reflecting on these past 19 years with gratitude ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Did you knowโ€ฆ๐Ÿค”

I have not 1 but 2 doctoral degrees? In my quest for lifelong learning, I went back to school after being a practicing physical therapist for 8 years to pursue a 6 year journey on obtaining an academic doctoral degree of a PhD. Since I was already studying and putting the work in then I decided to upgrade my MPT to a DPT and got the clinical doctoral physical therapy degree that is the standard now that all PTโ€™s graduate with nowadays.

๐ŸŽ‰ In Celebration of National Doctors Day, one of my Doctor friend (Dr. Emily) is providing you with an upgrade to our normal (20% savings) off my favorite foot products that I recommend to my runners who are recovering from plantar fasciitis, posterior tibial tendonitis, achilles tendon pain, bunions, or those runners who want to get stronger feet with a 40% OFF Special!

Nabosoโ€™s textured products connect you to your exercises and your running by strengthening your feet and helping you recover from your runs.Nabosoโ€™s textured products connect you to your exercises and your running by strengthening your feet and helping you recover from your runs.
