Professional Experience
Claire graduated from Wingate University in 2017. With a lifelong background in circus and dance, Claire taught dance classes to children with special needs while in PT school. Per her love for dance, she has begun to work with members of the Charlotte Ballet. Following a skiing accident in 2020, Claire herself underwent a surgical ACL reconstruction. This allowed her to experience first-hand the challenges her patients go through during their own injuries and physical therapy. This experience pushed forward her interest in treating orthopedic and sports-related injuries.
