Jill joined the Orthopedic & Spine Therapy team because of the amazing manual therapy skills training, continued education to increase skills, and loves that OST remains patient centered. “I was tired of high pressured large system healthcare. It has been so refreshing to be able to put patients first before profit.” Her favorite part of treating patients is the breakthrough they experience when they can function without pain. She loves getting to know her patients on a personal level, beyond their injury, and looks forward to hearing about their lives and sharing their journey.

Her philosophy and outlook on life and caring for her patients can be summed up by a famous quote from Naval Ravikant. “Doctors won’t make you healthy. Nutritionists won’t make you slim. Teachers won’t make you smart. Gurus won’t make you calm. Mentors won’t make you rich. Trainers won’t make you fit. Ultimately, you have to take responsibility. Save yourself.”

Jill lives in Manawa with her husband and three children. She is proud to be the athletic trainer for Little Wolf High School, and loves spending time on the sidelines for them. When she is not at work taking care of the community, she can be found spending time with her kids at their sporting events, and coaching basketball.
