Kimmie Nguyen
Burke
Summary
My name is Kimmie Nguyen, and I am a current Doctor of Physical Therapy student at Tufts University. My background includes over 15 years of competitive and professional figure skating, and 5 years of figure skating coaching. Through figure skating, performing, and coaching, I have developed a passion for helping athletes with injury prevention and rehabilitation. Although my background and experience are mainly in working with athletes, I am overall passionate about helping people improve their movements in their daily lives. Whether a person's daily struggle with movement impacts general mobility around their home, or their ability to participate in the next tournament, I am determined to provide the care they need so that they can excel at either!
