Holly is a Montana native who grew up in the Bitterroot Valley and attended the University of Montana. GO GRIZ! She studied biology and psychology in her undergraduate education and then went on to receive her Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2008.

When outside of the clinic, Holly enjoys spending time with her daughter Millie, son Bode, and her husband Jason.

She loves physical therapy work because of the inherent rewards associated with helping people return to a state of health and wellness.
