He’s especially dialed in when it comes to lower body stuff—think knees, ankles, all that good (and sometimes tricky) territory.He grew up in Puyallup, Washington, went to Eastern Washington University for undergrad, then made the bold move to the Gold Coast in Australia to earn his Doctor of Physiotherapy at Bond University.
