Hailey grew up in sunny Southern California. She received her Bachelor of Science degree in Biopsychology in 2021 from the University of California, Santa Barbara. While studying in Santa Barbara, Hailey worked as a physical therapy aide for 3 years at a local outpatient orthopedic clinic which solidified her passion for the field of physical therapy. In 2021, Hailey moved to Bend to attend physical therapy school and to embrace the beautiful high desert! She graduated from OSU-Cascades with her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in 2024 as part of the inaugural class.
While pursuing her doctorate, Hailey worked in the Therapeutic Recreation department with Bend Parks & Recreation where she supported children and adults with a variety of disabilities. Hailey has received specific training in the management of orthopedic injuries, neurologic conditions, and several aspects of pediatric physical therapy, including an inpatient internship at the Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford University.
Hailey enjoys treating diverse patient populations and diagnoses. She has specific interest in neurology and pediatric physical therapy and conducted research focused on patients with Parkinson’s disease. As a student athlete and former physical therapy patient herself, Hailey understands the value of building trust-based relationships with her patients and empowering them to reach their potential through individualized care plans that align with their passions and goals.
In her free time, Hailey enjoys all things outdoors: hiking, biking, pickleball, paddleboarding, snow sports and has discovered a new love of gardening. She is also very passionate about supporting the Central Oregon community, including volunteering at local fundraisers, shopping at the farmer’s market, and working at the amphitheater.
