𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗔𝗢𝗠𝗣𝗧? UMB has an amazing group of faculty that are heavily involved with AAOMPT, so I was introduced to the organization through them.

Being a part of AAOMPT has pushed me to explore the clinical reasoning aspect of PT to a higher caliber and has taught me how to better understand and critically appraise research. Additionally, AAOMPT has helped me move out of my comfort zone to learn and master new manual techniques even as a student.

I hope to complete a residency in orthopedics and potentially a fellowship as well. AAOMPT has connected me to others in the field who are on a similar path and has provided me with lots of mentorship!

What value does AAOMPT bring to your professional and personal life- what brings you back year after year?
AAOMPT membership and fellowship training have been pivotal to my growth, shaping me as a clinician, teacher, and mentor. They prepared me for my role at the University of North Carolina and sparked a lasting commitment to lifelong learning.
