-Maggie
Maggie grew up in the southwest suburbs of Chicago where school, athletics and family were her main priority. She then received a softball scholarship to attend undergraduate school at Grand Valley State University. Maggie received her Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology at GVSU and throughout that time developed a deep passion for helping others reach their health and wellness goals.
Maggie moved to Davenport, Iowa in 2014 where she and Dr. Boyich both began their Palmer journey. During the course of that time Maggie was a full-time Crossfit Trainer/athlete at Crossfit OC3. Maggie excelled in the Chiropractic Technician program there, where her passion for helping others was heightened by Chiropractic. After regular adjustments during her intense Crossfit Games training, Maggie found chiropractic care to be an integral part of her recovery. She has since prioritized it as a staple in her life. Her passion for helping others, personal experience and thorough educational background empowered her to influence others in a similar way.
In her free time, Maggie enjoys going on hikes, skiing, eating great food, and playing fetch with her dog, Griffin. She is extremely excited to be serving in the mountain state and is grateful to be surrounded by such a gorgeously welcoming community here in Boulder county.
