Integrity, Genuineness, Caring, and Honesty
“If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.”
At ATP, I am a Injury Prevention Specialist specializing in the prevention of workplace injuries and the identification of high-risk activities that may result in injuries in the workplace. One of my main goals is to help prevent the daily over-prescription of medications by physicians.
I enjoy working at ATP cause I like the autonomy and the ability to be my own professional. As well as the ability to mentor and help develop other Injury Prevention Specialists.
