What is your role at Scottish Rite for Children? 
I am a nurse and work with the hand surgeons, both in Dallas and Frisco. My days are spent organizing and preparing their clinics, seeing patients with them and helping to provide an overall smooth patient experience. I work with patients on their post-operative routine and help educate them on how to care for their casts and wounds. I also coordinate referrals, make appointments, schedule surgeries and provide patient education prior to surgery. 
 
What do you enjoy most about Scottish Rite?
The sweet patients and all of my co-workers! Working here allows me to be both a mom and still feel like I am making a difference in this world by helping these kiddos.
 
What was your first job? Why did you decide to do the work you are doing now?
My first job was a cast/brace tech for an orthopedic practice in Ohio. That is where I met my husband and we moved to Dallas. I’ve always been an athlete and had interests in sports and orthopedics. My job as a cast tech gave me the experience to then become an orthopedic nurse. Plus, I just love kids! 
What’s the coolest or most interesting thing you’re working on right now?
I really like working with patients who have brachial plexus injuries or kids that have had to receive nerve grafts. I have seen Dr. Stutz do some amazing things and it is really cool to see nerve function return. 

What are you currently watching on Netflix/Hulu/TV/etc.? 
Ugly Delicious, Master of None, Outerbanks and The Dawn Wall. 

What would be the most amazing adventure to go on?
Right before COVID really hit, my husband and I went to Rwanda on a gorilla trekking trip. Hands down, it was the coolest thing I have ever done. I don’t think that my bucket list will ever end!

What are some small things that make your day better?
Hugs, kisses and giggles from my two babies.

What is special about the place you grew up?
GO BUCKEYES! OH-IO

What is your favorite thing to do when you’re not working?

Dallas Morning News: Building true connections: Dallas Mavericks Mavs Academy keeps kids on the move with virtual camps this summer

by | Jul 24, 2020 | Press Coverage, Spotlight

In partnership with the Dallas Mavericks, Scottish Rite for Children helps to reach youth and keep them active and healthy. The Mavs Academy promotes safety and wellness and our experts teach participants how to “Warm up the RITE way.”

In an ideal summer, the Mavs Academy would be serving more than 3,000 young student-athletes through camps at 25-plus locations across D-FW. But when the COVID-19 pandemic slowed normal life to a standstill earlier this year, Mavs Academy moved quickly to adjust to a new normal.

What is your role at Scottish Rite for Children? 
I am an outpatient physical therapist in the Orthopedic department at the Frisco campus. I evaluate and treat children and adolescents with musculoskeletal, neurologic and rheumatologic conditions through specialized exercises, activities and other techniques. I work with many specific populations including patients with scoliosis, amputations, birth defects and acquired injuries. My goal is to figure out physical barriers that may keep a child from their goals and then design treatment to improve or adapt those barriers in order to achieve their highest level of function.   
 
What do you enjoy most about Scottish Rite?
I enjoy working with the large variety of patients that Scottish Rite treats. This includes a wide spectrum of age, level of function and even nationalities. People come from all over to be treated here. 
 
I also really enjoy the fact that the staff are here to do what is best for the patients and everyone works hard to make sure finances or other barriers do not restrict treatment. 
 
What was your first job? What path did you take to get here?
My first official job was working at a grocery store when I was a teenager. I had odd jobs all throughout high school and college. My path to becoming an employee at Scottish Rite is kind of interesting. My mother began working as a surgical nurse in Dallas when I was just 3 years old, so I grew up attending holiday parties and staff picnics. I eventually became a junior volunteer, a shadow student and then completed my final clinical rotation for physical therapy school – all at Scottish Rite. It was my first job out of school, and I have been here six years now. 
 
I can actually remember the exact day and specific patient I was observing at Scottish Rite when I decided I wanted to be a physical therapist. I was 14 years old and I never changed my mind! 
What’s the coolest or most interesting thing you’re working on right now?
I completed my first level certification in the BSPTS Schroth based method for the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in 2018 and I was planning to attend/test for the second level certification this summer. That was put on hold with the current events, but I’m hoping to complete it soon. 
 

What are you currently watching on Netflix/Hulu/TV/etc.? 
In our home, Daniel Tiger or Sesame Street is usually playing (I have a 2-year-old), but I recently started watching The Amazing Race series and have enjoyed seeing the world travels, even just by TV screen. 
 
What would be the most amazing adventure to go on?
When I was younger, I always wanted to run a race on every continent. So far, I have done two – North America and Europe. I would love to check off more! 
 
What are some small things that make your day better?
At work, I really enjoying watching a child reach a goal or come back for a social visit when they have been discharged for a while. Seeing/hearing children doing what they love is the best!
 
At home, there is nothing better than my son running up to hug me and tell me about his day when I get home. 
 
What is special about the place you grew up?
I grew up in Wylie, Texas. We have a bit of an unusual motto, “AHMO”, that originated from a Dean Martin comedy roast. It means a lot of different things to different people and can be found literally all over the town. 
 
What is your favorite thing to do when you’re not working? 
I can be found doing lots of things to stay active. Running, playing soccer and keeping up with my son are just a few of my favorite things!
