Summer has been a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant since 2021 having graduated from the Institute of Technology in Clovis, CA at the top of her class. She received an award for being the “best clinician”. Summer began her career in physical therapy as a job in 2015 working at Oakhurst Physical Therapy. It didn’t take long to discover that this “job” was becoming her passion. Working as an aide gave her the opportunity to not only participate in daily exercises with patients but to develop a rapport with them. As the time went on, Summer decided to pursue her Physical Therapist Assistant license by going back to school. Summer always gives 100% and you will know that if you get the chance to work with her.

In her personal time, Summer can be found hiking her dog Milo, shredding a snow covered mountain on her snowboard, enjoying time on the water at Bass Lake and hanging with her family. Summer has called the mountains home since her youth and loves being able to give back to the community she loves.
