Your health journey is unique—and you deserve care that honors that. My goal is to support you on your path to lasting health by offering a holistic approach that combines chiropractic care and functional medicine.
Rather than just managing symptoms, I work to uncover the root causes of your health concerns, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence. Whether you're seeking pain relief, more energy, better sleep, or simply want to feel like yourself again, my services are designed to help guide and support you along the way.
This is a collaborative process. I’m here to walk with you—to listen, to educate, and to help you create a plan that works for your body and your life. Together, we’ll take meaningful steps toward a healthier, more resilient you.
No matter where you're starting, you're not alone. With the right support, your path to better health can become clear, sustainable, and truly your own.

I grew up in Beloit, Kansas, with my four siblings, where I developed a strong sense of family and community. While attending Fort Hays State University, I met my soon to be wife, Andrea, and many other lifelong friends. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, and after getting married, we moved to Kansas City, where I began and completed my Doctorate of Chiropractic through Cleveland University - Kansas City.
This is where my journey into holistic health truly began. While balancing schoolwork, I dove deep into reading and attending weekend training, eager to expand my knowledge in order to best serve my future patients. My passion for health unfolded during this time, and I had the privilege of learning from many great teachers whose insights continue to shape the way I care for my patients today.
Now, we live in Manhattan, where we enjoy trying new foods and spending time with our family. Outside of my work, I’m passionate about trail running, snowboarding, and cheering on my lifelong favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs.

I hold a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Cleveland University – Kansas City, graduating in December 2024, which provided a strong foundation in structural health and patient care. Building on that foundation, I’ve completed over 700 hours of advanced seminar and hands-on training from amazing instructors across the country, all deeply committed to cutting-edge treatment techniques with a root-cause approach. This extensive post-graduate training in Functional Medicine, Applied Kinesiology, Neuro-Emotional Technique (NET), Chiro-Plus Kinesiology (CPK), and acupuncture has shaped the way I think clinically—allowing me to move beyond isolated symptoms, recognize meaningful patterns within the body, and direct care toward correcting the underlying drivers of dysfunction, which is ultimately how lasting improvement occurs.
That training only matters if it translates into care that makes sense to you and fits your life. My role is not just to analyze and assess, but to listen, explain, and work with you to connect the clinical picture to your personal health goals. In order to achieve this, I take a collaborative approach—blending my clinical experience with your priorities to design a plan that is practical, individualized, and responsive as your body changes. Whether addressing structural imbalances, providing nutritional guidance, supporting lifestyle adjustments, or helping manage stress, the focus remains on meaningful progress that you can understand and take ownership of.
I’m here to empower you with the tools and understanding needed to not only improve your health, but to build lasting resilience and vitality for years to come.
