Clinician Mentorship Lead

Kerri grew up in Kirkland, WA and attended The Overlake School where she played soccer and lacrosse. Kerri met Ben Wobker, Mandie Majerus, and the staff at Lake Washington Physical Therapy initially as a patient where they gave her the tools to continue being active. In the following years, she shadowed Ben and Mandie, which sparked her interest in the career of physical therapy.

After high school, Kerri moved south to The University of Puget Sound. During her time at Puget Sound, she competed on the varsity lacrosse team and earned her B.S. in Exercise Science, with an emphasis in Bioethics. Kerri continued shadowing and working as a physical therapy aide throughout college in preparation for graduate school.

Kerri attended Regis University in Denver, CO and graduated with her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in May 2019. During her education, she worked in outpatient orthopedics, inpatient neuro, neonatal intensive care unit, and home health care. With the expertise gained from this diverse work background, Kerri is passionate about treating patients of all ages and abilities to achieve their specific goals.

Since starting work at Lake Washington Physical Therapy, Kerri had the opportunity to expand her practice beyond orthopedics to specialize in women’s health, particularly for pregnant and postpartum populations. She utilizes individualized evidence based practices to promote healthy pregnancy, labor and delivery, and postpartum recovery. Kerri also was part of our COVID response team and company compliance. Education is important to Kerri and she currently is in charge of our clinician mentor program.

Kerri enjoys spending her free time with friends and family playing lacrosse, water skiing, snow skiing, rock climbing, hiking, and backpacking.
