As a native of Livingston, Lexi first came to Granite as a Park High School track athlete. She was blown away by how much Darcy and the crew knew about the human body and how they made her symptoms and treatment plan make sense to her. She returned to Granite as an undergraduate student and earned over 400 observation hours before starting PT school. The full circle story was completed when Lexi came back to work at the clinic that raised her, in the town that raised her.

 

Lexi pursued a career in physical therapy because it champions human quality of life. In PT, “success” is based on the patient’s needs, priorities, and goals. Success can look like a hiker returning to her mountains and sense of identity. It can look like a grandpa safely kneeling on the floor to play with his grandkids. It can look like a dog mom getting back to morning walks with her pup after a knee replacement. Lexi loves helping people figure out how their pain is affecting their function and quality of life, and then building a treatment plan that makes sense to them. The individualized nature of PT is such a unique part of this field, and it allows her to keep patients at the center of what she does.

In her free time, Lexi enjoys hiking, baking, and cheering for the Griz.
