Chris Cardella, ORT/L

Chris joined DHPT in 2022 after graduating from Lynchburg College and the University of St. Augustine.

His career experience includes working as an athletic trainer with Division 1 football and baseball teams, as well as minor league baseball. He has been involved in throwing programs and return-to-sport rehabilitation for shoulder and trauma injuries.

Chris loves being an occupational therapist because it allows him to help athletes return to their sport, especially after trauma. His career goal is to become a certified hand therapist (CHT).

In his free time, Chris enjoys traveling to different countries, kayaking, golfing, playing sports, and exploring new restaurants. His favorite life motto is: “I’ll tell you two things if I’ll tell you one.”
