Reena Villamater '13 graduated from Cal State Northridge in 2017 with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. She worked as a personal trainer for a few years before deciding to go back to school and pursue physical therapy. Reena spent the last few years working towards her degree to become a Physical Therapist Assistant at American Career College in Anaheim. She interned in both an outpatient clinic (PT-RN Care) and a skilled nursing facility (Heritage Manor) and really enjoyed and learned from both experiences. In October 2021, Reena graduated from the Physical Therapist Assistant program with honors and passed the National Physical Therapy Exam. Her goal is to work in both home health and in an inpatient/SNF because she appreciates the amount of patient one-on-one time she gets in those settings and the opportunity to watch her patients' progress.
