Amy’s passion and excitement for medicine first began while working as an
administrative assistant and aide to Physical Therapists in high school. Her exposure to
rehabilitation and physical medicine through the realm of Physical Therapy inspired an
interest in sports medicine and kinesiology, which led her to pursue her Bachelor of
Science in Exercise Science and minor in Psychology at George Fox University
between 2018 and 2022. Following her undergraduate studies, she went on to pursue
her Master of Physician Assistant Studies through Idaho State University, completing
her degree in August 2024.
As a part of her formal clinical rotations with Idaho State’s PA program, Amy completed
a 5-week orthopedic surgery focused rotation with AOS. Combining her passion for
sports, clinical care, and surgery, her rotation with AOS was a perfect fit, and she is
delighted to be returning to the group now as a provider!
A life-long Alaskan, Amy enjoys hiking, running, camping, and fishing. With returning to
her home state after pursuing her education in Oregon and Idaho, she is eager
rediscover Alaska alongside her husband, Josiah.
