Gary, PTA

Hi I’m Gary, a PTA from College of DuPage, and I’m looking to eventually become a DPT. I became interested in working in the physical therapy field in my early college years largely because I have a passion for teaching, helping others, and human anatomy. PT is the best way I can work in a field that interests me as well as allow me to be of service to others returning to better health.

I’ve played in various sports and have even competed in a couple amateur bodybuilding competitions just for the fun of it! My life heavily revolves around various aspects of fitness which is why I eventually would like to be sport medicine certified. Until then I’m happy to learn everything that I can to best serve those that walk into my FYZICAL clinic!

Fun Facts:

1. While I love working in a healing field, my favorite sports to play are typically of the contact nature: football, mma, rugby, etc.
2. I’m a self acclaimed nerd that loves anime and used to compete at state for chess. I also love to play dungeons and dragons with my friends
3. As a student, I made a living calling bingo and dealing casino games
