Ralph attended San Diego State University where he earned a business degree while playing soccer. After his college years, Ralph pursued a professional soccer career in San Diego, Utah, and Brazil. However, an injury to his hip during his time in Brazil led him back to San Diego for treatment.

At Rehab United, Ralph received care from former teammate Bryan Hill and his brother Sean. Inspired by the positive impact they had on his life, Ralph joined Rehab United as a PT aide and strength and conditioning coach to support his own recovery.

Motivated by the transformative experiences he witnessed, Ralph decided to further his education and become a physical therapist. He pursued a master's degree in physical therapy at California State University, Northridge. During his time there, Ralph interned with the Los Angeles Dodgers during Spring Training in Arizona and later continued working with the team during the regular season in LA.

In 2012, Ralph returned to Rehab United, this time as a physical therapist. His journey, from being a patient to becoming a dedicated healthcare professional, showcases his commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.
