Family Background

In 2009, Dr J, his wife, and soon to be daughter, moved to St Louis, Missouri to attend the premier Logan College of Chiropractic.  Here Dr. J received a cutting edge education in Chiropractic healthcare, Physiotherapy, manual medicine, and Nutrition.  After an intense and accelerated course of study, Dr. J became the first to simultaneously earn the degrees of Doctor of Chiropractic and Master of Science in Nutrition and Human Performance, graduating Magna Cum Laude (with high honors) in both degrees.  Dr. J has supplemented his formal education with several certifications and studies a variety of adjusting and manual medicine techniques. At the top of this list is a certification in Active Release Techniques® (ART), a complete, full body soft tissue management system. (http://www.activerelease.com/index.asp?)

Dr. J is a member of both the American Chiropractic Association and the Colorado Chiropractic Association.

If you ask Dr. J where he called home before moving to Colorado you are sure to stump him. Without any military association, Dr. J has lived in Utah, California, Washington, Arizona, Chicago, Ohio, Idaho, Nebraska, Missouri and now Colorado.  Dr. J enjoys the outdoors and Colorado with its sun, mountains, greenery, and seasons is quickly becoming his favorite.

Shortly after graduating from High School in Tucson, Arizona, Dr. J made a difficult, but foundational decision that would prove to shape the rest of his life.  He chose to put everything in his life on hold, leave his friends and family and serve a 2 year full time Mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  In the inner city and suburbs of Chicago, Dr. J had incredible and difficult experiences serving those in need, strengthening fellow Christian’s faith in Jesus Christ, and teaching non-Christians about Christ and his ministry.  These experiences humbled Dr. J and taught him a love for others that no other experience could have. From this Dr. J grew the compassion and desire he now has to help all those he comes in contact with.

Shortly after returning from his mission Dr. J met an amazing woman. Tara was confident and inspiring and quickly got his attention.  Even though they lived in two different states, after a chance meeting Tara fell madly in love with Dr. J and she called upon a mutual acquaintance to ensure Dr. J she was interested and expecting a call.  After a long distance relationship, Dr. J and the newly deemed Mrs. J were married in the Bountiful, Utah Temple of LDS church.

Dr. J and Tara love being with friends and family in the outdoors whether it is camping, four wheeling, ATVing, hiking or biking (Dr. J may prefer some of the motor sports more than Tara).  Outside of helping in the office, Tara spends her time caring for their two beautiful children, Eden and Axel, with number three on the way, and loves cooking, crafting, and spicing up their home. Dr. J and Tara are both heavily involved in their church and volunteer to serve in the youth ministries and in other capacities.
