Team sports throughout her youth and college career brought to light the importance of health and wellness. The love of nutrition and exercise led Julia to graduate from Maryville College in 2012 with a Bachelor’s degree in exercise science. She then continued at South College to obtain a degree as a physical therapist assistant in 2014, and has been working in the field ever since. She enjoys working as a team with her patients to help them meet their goals. Outside of work, she is passionate about her family, gardening, hiking, travel, running, and of course, emphasizing an active lifestyle which brings so much joy.
