1. Why I Became a Chiropractor

Why I became a Chiropractor? I became a Chiropractor when I was attending Indiana University.

I was actually working in an ice factory. We made a 300-pound carving blocks and one of them tried to fall on my and I strained my lower back.

I went through the medical doctor route and it just did not seem to help. And a friend of mine back home his dad was a chiropractor. So I went, saw him and in a matter of a couple of weeks he had me fixed up and I was feeling better.

That’s how I initially got intrigued with being a chiropractor and he actually wrote me a letter of recommendation and I went off to chiropractic school soon after that. And that’s how I got interested and eventually became a Chiropractor.

2. A Little About My Family

I’m the youngest of four.

I have an older brother who is an attorney, he lives in Michigan.

And I have a sister who is a a teacher and lives in Los Angeles.

I have another sister who is an occupational therapist and she lives in Indianapolis.

They all have kids and I have a great set of nieces and nephews about eight in all.

I have a great mother and father and we really enjoy spending a lot of time together at holidays and we have a lot of fun together. And that’s a little about my family.

3. My Education

I graduated high school from Columbus North in Columbus, Indiana then I attended Indiana University for 4 years where I majored in Biology and Exercise Science.

From there I went on to Palmer College which is in Davenport, Iowa and I was an Assistant Professor there for my last year of college.

From there I graduated and moved to Kentucky and started practicing. And that’s a little about my education.

4. My Professional Affiliations

My professional associations include member of the American Chiropractic Association. They work on the legislation for our profession in Washington D.C. and around in the States.

I’m also a member of Health Source which is the largest Chiropractic organization in the country. There is over 300 offices now nationwide I think in 47 States. And those are my associations.

5. My Community Involvement

My community involvement includes active membership in the Jeffersontown Chamber of Commerce.

I also attend church at St. Edwards in Jeffersontown.

In addition to that we also help raise money for several local organizations. We’ve sponsored Red Cross blood drives and helped raise money for the J-town Area Ministries.

We’ve helped raise money for the Shamrock Foundation which is a foundation for sheltering animals for adoption.

We also give lectures and talks at the American Heart Association. We’re helping them set up the Wellness Program there as well.

And so those are activities were involved in in the Jeffersontown community.
