Ali is a native of Brandon, South Dakota. She received her undergraduate degree in Performing Arts from Wichita State University. Following graduation, she took some time off to pursue a career as a professional dancer. She then returned to the University of South Dakota to pursue her other passion of becoming a Doctor of Physical Therapy, graduating in 2020. 

It is her personal goal as a physical therapist to help her patients become more independent and take control of their condition through collaboration and education. She is a fervent evidence-based practitioner who combines a wide variety of treatment techniques aimed to help patients achieve their own, unique goals. Ali enjoys treating the general population, peri- and post-partum women, as well as young athletes, specifically dancers and gymnasts. 

Outside of work, Ali enjoys spending time with her daughter, being outdoors, and instructing classes at a local gym.
