Born and raised in the greater Eastside region of Washington, Dr. CJ attended Holy Family Kirkland, Lake Washington High School and then went on to get his Bachelor of Science from the University of Washington. Promptly after graduation from undergraduate school, he moved down to Oregon where he attended the University of Western States Chiropractic College. The desire to work in chiropractic began in high school, especially after dealing with repeated injuries while playing sports. Dr. CJ took inspiration from his childhood chiropractor, Dr. Jeremy. 

Before his desire to work in chiropractic, Dr. CJ found a passion for strength training and eventually obtained his Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) certification. In addition to sports injuries and weight training, Dr. CJ takes great interest in biomechanics and how dysfunction can present itself up and down the kinetic chain. Dr. CJ enjoys playing competitive lacrosse in Canada and locally, strength training, being outdoors, and spending time with his wife, daughter, family and friends.

Dr. CJ thoroughly enjoys working with those who have competitive aspirations or are seriously looking to make changes to improve quality of life.
