HOLLY INGHAMwelcoming

The CU Physical Therapy Program is excited to welcome Holly Ingham, PT, DPT, ATP to our faculty! Dr. Ingham grew up in Colorado and received a BS in Microbiology from Colorado State University. She earned a Master’s degree in Physical Therapy from the University of Kansas Medical Center and completed her transitional Doctorate in Physical Therapy from CU. Ingham comes to us with a wealth of experience. For the past 15 years, she has worked with pediatrics in the schoolbased setting. Prior to working in schools, she worked in outpatient, home health, and as a contract therapist. Her first job as a PT was working in a rural hospital in their outpatient department.

Do you have a specialization or interest within PT?

School-based practice is my Jam! I love seeing kids grow and develop over time and getting to work with them in such a functional setting. I am also an Assistive Technology Professional. I utilize a lot of assistive technology during my treatment sessions, including switch toys, communication devices, standers, walkers, and, of course, wheelchairs. I spend a lot of my time making sure that students and families have the right equipment in place to meet their needs.

What are your hobbies?

I enjoy watching and volunteering for all of my kid’s activities which includes marching band, theater, choir, wrestling, volleyball, and track. We enjoy camping, hiking, and being outdoors as a family. I also enjoy baking.

Any family or pets?

I live with my husband, three kids, one dog, two cats, and one bird.

What type of work will you be doing with the Clinical Education team?

My primary role on the Clinical Education team is to help with recruitment. I am also a faculty advisor for some of the students and help with site visits.

What are you most looking forward to in becoming part of the CU PT family?

I am so excited to be joining such an amazing team of professionals! I am hoping to get more involved with supporting the pediatric track and research!
