Mackenzie Grooms
Physical Therapy Aide
Kenzie was born in San Diego, California and was raised in Blooming Grove, Texas. She is a triplet, and loves to turn every family event into a friendly competition anyway she can! She grew up playing various sports but mainly loved running track. In 2013 Kenzie moved back to San Diego where she attended Pacific Beach Middle School and later graduated from Mission Bay High.
In high school, Kenzie was able to run her way to CIF during her freshman and sophomore years. In her junior year, she tore her ACL while play lacrosse and couldn’t continue playing sports. After injuring her knee and becoming a physical therapy patient herself, her interest in the kinesiology world began to surface. She knew she wanted to pursue a career in Kinesiology so that she could help other people going through the same experience she was.
Kenzie wants to use her degree to pursue PT or PA school, and also continue her education in any way she can. She is now a sophomore at Cal State Fullerton working to get a bachelor of science in Kinesiology. She is extremely grateful and excited to be working at Core Performance Physical Therapy where she can grow her knowledge base and education in the physical therapy field.
In her free time, Kenzie loves to hang out with her roommate, run, work out, and eat tacos.
