Determination.

Chiropractic has allowed me to grow and has given me the determination to work hard. What I look forward to in the future is truly helping people not just for pain, but for a better understanding of how their body functions and what chiropractic truly means.

I’m excited to finally start my journey as a chiropractor in Pennsylvania. I always say chiropractic found me. Now it is my turn to give chiropractic back to the community!

Thank you to all of my family, friends, mentors, professors, and staff for always believing in me and giving Class 211 the determination to be great chiropractors.

Opportunity.

Palmer has given me the opportunity to live in another country and gain a different perspective of the world. It’s given me the opportunity to learn from some of the best, to meet amazing people and to become a chiropractor!

I’m excited to move back to Ontario, join CURAVITA Health Group in Ottawa and keep learning how to care for patients!

Honor.

I am so honored to be able to learn at the Fountainhead of chiropractic. Palmer pride is evident every day and everywhere on campus. Now that I’m a graduate of Palmer, I will proudly carry the Palmer name to my practice and continue giving my patients the best care possible like I have learned to do at Palmer.

I’ve learned so much during my time at Palmer and I am very excited to continue learning and providing care for the community of southwest Michigan.

Family.

Going through Palmer has been a thrilling adventure! There were so many things that I loved about my experience, from the teachers to the staff doctors, but what I loved the most were my peers. We’re like a family here and we would all try to push each other out of our comfort zones, whether it was studying for a test, going to a seminar, or applying for an internship, we were always there to support each other. Because of that, I don’t think I would be the person I am today without them.

I am very excited to be working beside both my parents in New Hampshire and serving my community the best I can!

Focus.

Palmer helped us focus on our future patients, and things we needed to learn today to help them tomorrow. Now I’m focused on applying these principles in patient care.
