Maria E. Almodovar, B.S. Exercise Science '20,  DPT '23 headshot

The true measure and value of an education lies in the students - who they become and what they do with that knowledge. I've grown personally and professionally with my spirit grounded in reflection and Ignatian values to impact my patients and the future of healthcare. I think that truly speaks to the value of this institution.
