AIRA exists because people deserve accurate information when they're hurt and don't know what to do.

About AIRA

We built AIRA because of what we kept seeing in the clinic.

Across twelve years of practice, the pattern repeated. Someone would come in weeks or months after an accident, still in pain, still confused, with no idea what kind of care they could get or that their insurance might cover multiple specialists. A lot of them didn't even know they had options.

So the first appointment wasn't about treatment. It was about catching someone up on everything they should have known from day one. And something about that felt wrong.

The pattern

Accident → days of confusion → weeks pass → first appointment: "You had options this whole time."

With AIRA

Accident → find AIRA on day one → know your rights and options → right care, right away.

Washington State has some of the strongest protections for accident victims anywhere in the country. People have real rights and real coverage here, along with specialists, attorneys, and financial resources that exist to help. But so much of that information never reaches the people who need it, at least not when it actually matters.

AIRA started as an answer to a question we kept asking: what if someone could find all of this out on day one?

We wanted to build something that worked like a guide. A real blueprint for what to do after an accident in Washington State, built without a sales pitch, without a lead form, and without any agenda other than sharing what people actually need to know. So we reached out to the people we trusted: chiropractors, physical therapists, nurses, doctors across disciplines, attorneys who handle injury cases, insurance professionals who can explain what coverage actually means, and financial experts who understand the full picture.

The platform brings all of them together, because recovering from an accident often requires different kinds of help, and finding that help shouldn't be this hard.

AIRA exists because people deserve accurate information when they're hurt and don't know what to do. And in Washington State especially, that information can make a real difference.

About the Founder

I've been practicing chiropractic care across the Pacific Northwest since 2014, and the path I took to get here is worth knowing.

I grew up in California playing baseball, spending several years as a professional catcher in the minor leagues with organizations like the Angels, Mariners, and Braves. When two shoulder surgeries in two years ended my career in 2009, I started asking a different question: what do I do with everything I've learned about the human body?

I knew I wanted to help people, and I wanted to do it in a way that reached far beyond athletes. So I drove around Southern California walking into chiropractic offices unannounced, asking the doctors there what the work was actually like. I visited 25 or 30 offices. Every single doctor loved what they did. Every one of them told me I should become a chiropractor.

I listened. I started school in 2011, graduated in April 2014, took over a clinic in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood, and drove north.

In the clinic, I have a natural ability to make people feel comfortable fast, and a genuine drive to find the root of what's going on rather than treating the surface. I hold multiple certifications across posture analysis, severe injuries, and neurological conditions. But patients tend to remember me for asking a lot of questions and for making the whole thing feel manageable.

"I don't really work. I get to hang out with cool people all day long and make them feel better."

Over a decade of practice, I kept noticing the same gap: people coming in after accidents who had no idea what they had available to them or what their options were. So I built AIRA.
