I have been working with Fixen Chiropractic since 2018, and when I am not at the office I am a volunteer First Responder. Outside of work I enjoy camping, exploring the outdoors, concerts, and family vacations. My favorite thing about working for Fixen Chiropractic is that I get to organize the office so that everything runs smoothly. I take pride in our office and patients. And I love our Fixen crew!
