Michelle grew up on the East Coast, having spent most of her life in the New York City area. She completed her Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience at Vassar College and went on to earn her Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2025 from Columbia University. She loves working with the orthopedic population, which allows her nerdy side to piece together the relationships between individual body parts, the whole body, and movement patterns. Driven by her own hypermobility, she holds a particular interest in helping patients with hypermobility and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Her practice emphasizes patient empowerment and autonomy, as well as evidence-informed care.

Outside of the clinic, Michelle loves baking (and eating) sweets, reading a spine-tingling thriller, and spending time in nature.
