About Natalie

Growing up as a gymnast taught me that you're successful when others are. I was fortunate enough to be able to help kids with physical/cognitive limitations when they came for gymnastics. I miss those sessions. I come from very loving family (mom, dad, one little brother), but it's my grandparents I have a soft spot for. They spent many years traveling the nation with me for gymnastics, and as the years have gone by the support roles have shifted. I like to spend a day a week with my grandparents to give back the way they gave to me. Not just with love and being present, but also many ADL's. I've noticed during this time I love doing this and want to help other people while I'm on break from school. I am currently pursuing my degree in kinesiology at Washington State University. It's is a close relative of physical therapy. I love being able to practice these skills to better people's quality of life and help them feel confident, independent, and hopefully in less pain.
