Amanda was born and raised in Lakeland, Florida. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences from the University of South Florida and went on to complete the Physical Therapist Assistant program at Polk State College.

Her interest in physical therapy began during her senior year of highschool after dislocating her knee and going through physical therapy as part of her recovery. That experience gave her a personal understanding of the rehabilitation process and inspired her to pursue a career helping others regain strength, mobility, and confidence through PT.

Outside of her professional life, Amanda enjoys traveling, trying new foods, exploring new destinations, and experiencing different cultures. She also values spending time with friends and family and making meaningful memories with the people closest to her.
