Diane grew up in Southern Oregon before moving to Eugene. She earned her bachelor's degree in Biology and Exercise and Movement Science at the University of Oregon. She attended the University of Saint Augustine Health Sciences where she became a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) and was awarded the class of 2007 Excellence in Manual Therapy. Missing the familiarity of the Pacific Northwest, Diane and her husband Brandon returned to Eugene. She is a founding partner of Endurance Physical Therapy clinic.
Aside from Physical Therapy, Diane is an avid rock climber, hiker, and runner. She volunteers with Willamette Backcountry Ski Patrol and if she has to be indoors, you will find Diane curled up on the couch knitting or reading a good book.
