About

Andy was born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri. The son of a nurse, he was exposed to healthcare early on. His first experience with physical therapy occurred when he was playing freshman football at Rockhurst High School and injured his foot. He became close with the school’s trainer/physical therapist during his rehab and ended up working with him as a manager for JV and Varsity football his junior and senior years. It was during that time that Andy was impressed by the profession and really started considering a career in physical therapy. Andy then attended the University of Missouri in Columbia for both his undergraduate degree and PT education. He received his Bachelor of Health Science in 2021 and his Doctorate of Physical Therapy 3 years later. In his free time, Andy loves cheering on his Chiefs, Royals, and Mizzou Tigers, going to country concerts, and spending time in the great outdoors. He has a family farm in the Ozarks where he loves to fish and hunt, and he also loves hiking any chance he gets, from Colorado to Alaska to the Himalayas in Nepal.
Andy has a knack for relating to people from all walks of life and uses that to his advantage as a physical therapist, giving personalized and attentive care to all his patients. No matter what brings you into F.I.T., Andy will do his best to help you achieve your goals and make your rehabilitation a great experience
