Speaker Spotlight: David Meyer ⭐️

Growing up a surviving twin, learning disabled, a short statured athlete, and the son of a chronically ill father, David fully embraces the term “Underdog”. David holds his doctorate in Physical Therapy from New York University graduating in 2012 working with high level athletes and the general population facilitating the physical pursuit of their dreams. He served as the medical and rehabilitation coordinator for the St. Louis Cardinals and more recently in 2022 worked in Major League Rugby with the New York IronWorkers who won the league championship that year. David realized that athletes suffer a tremendous identity crisis after injury and delved into the mental side of their rehabilitation and performance.
