An athlete all his life, Kevin played multiple sports growing up and ultimately was able to play collegiate soccer at the Division 1 Level for Saint Joseph’s University.

After college, he obtained his Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Kevin went on to compete in multiple olympic lifting and powerlifting meets in addition to some amateur strongman competitions.

He has since transitioned his focus to helping other individuals achieve their goals. Kevin has been privileged to work with a variety of athletes competing at the state and national levels of soccer, baseball, track and field, lacrosse, football, powerlifting, ultra-running, and up to the international levels of triathlon, weightlifting, rowing, swimming, and CrossFit.

In addition to treating patients and coaching, Kevin has worked as a staff member for Power Speed Endurance teaching the Art of Breath course at health and performance facilities around the country.

Kevin’s goal is to help each client realize their individual potential by providing proper education, enhancing movement capacity, and instilling the right mindset on how to address injury and pain. It is his sincere belief that establishing a proper foundation of movement allows everyone to maximize their ability to enjoy life.

Kevin spent his first 8 years in practice in Boulder, Colorado, where he founded Blue Door Physical Therapy and Performance. He and his wife, Erica, and their daughter, Zoe, moved back to New Jersey in 2023 and are excited to give back to the communities where they grew up.
