Objective
I am interested in a position with a Physical Therapy facility. I enjoy helping people reach their
full potential after they have had surgery or are recovering from an injury. The skills I have
obtained while studying the human body in college, as well as the amount of time I have
volunteered in different physical therapy settings, has given me a broad view of different ways to
approach physical therapy.
