Marcela Criado, PT, DPT, CSCS serves on the leadership team of Move Together, where she helps drive the organization’s mission of increasing access to movement health. A physical therapist by training, Marcela was born and raised in Guatemala before completing her college and graduate studies in the United States, where she currently resides.
For Marcela, Move Together represents both a professional calling and a personal purpose. Leaving Guatemala was a difficult decision, and although the U.S. has become the place where she lives, Guatemala will always be called home. Through Move Together, Marcela has found a way to merge her lifelong passion for physical therapy with her desire to give back to the country that shaped her into the human she is now. For Marcela, every step with Move Together is a step toward honoring her roots, empowering others, and carrying forward the chispa of Guatemala into everything she does.
