LJ was born and raised in Florida and received her Bachelor of Science in Clinical Psychology from the University of Central Florida. Before working at TAI, LJ was a Registered Behavioral Therapist, working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. She injured herself shortly after moving to Bend and began physical therapy with Therapeutic Associates Physical Therapy. Her time as a patient is what sparked her interest in the field. She became a physical therapy aide and will begin DPT school in Fall 2025.
Outside of work, LJ loves to rock climb, run and spend time with her husband and dog, Ravioli.
