Lori was born in Northern California and grew up playing competitive soccer and softball. From her experience in rehabilitation as a result of multiple sports injuries, Lori was drawn to a career in Physical Therapy. Lori graduated from Sonoma State University in 2001 with a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology/Exercise Science. She then moved to Washington State to attend graduate school at the University of Puget Sound and received a Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Following graduation, Lori worked as a staff therapist at an outpatient orthopedic clinic and was later promoted to Clinic Director. Lori has always aspired to be a business owner and co-founded DuPont Physical Therapy in January 2016.
Outside of work, Lori enjoys spending time with her husband, James, who has been a pediatric Physical Therapist in the North Thurston school district for 16 years. They enjoy spending their time with their 2 children, skiing/snowboarding, camping, gardening, and being outside.
Rachel was born and raised in Washington and takes full advantage of all the beautiful hiking, camping, swimming, and snowboarding this beautiful state has to offer.

Rachel enthusiastically accepted a position at Dupont Physical Therapy in July of 2016 and is eager to work with the amazing DPT team to meet the needs of the community.
