Alumna Elsa Amaral was attracted to the physical therapy profession for the close interactions with people. Tell us what attracted you to the health sciences.
Some might consider Elsa Amaral’s role as a physical therapist at Penn to be an accidental career. In 2001, while living in Hoboken, N.J., and working for Macy’s in Manhattan, she injured herself during a skiing trip and wound up in physical therapy.
