The summer she served as a Camp War Eagle counselor at Auburn she met her husband, Logan (yes, Dr. Logan seen above), who was serving as head cheerleader at the time. It was also during her studies at Auburn that she became passionate about studying human physiology and the impact exercise has on a cellular level. She then made what she lovingly calls a ‘mission trip’ from Auburn to Tuscaloosa to complete her Master’s in Exercise Physiology at The University of Alabama, where she performed human research primarily in blood flow restriction training.

From Tuscaloosa, she moved to Columbia, South Carolina to start her Ph.D. in Exercise Oncology working in a physical therapy clinic with patients who were undergoing or recently completed cancer treatment. It was during this time that Moe felt called out of research and into patient treatment.

Moe graduated from PT school in 2024 and now treats primarily pelvic floor patients, a passion she discovered while pregnant with her first child, Shepherd. Moe believes firmly that pelvic floor PT should be a mainstay in women’s healthcare.
