Rachel M. Koldenhoven Rolfe

Dr. Rachel Koldenhoven Rolfe is an Associate Professor at Texas State University, specializing in biomechanics with an emphasis on chronic ankle instability. Her research centers on gait and functional movement adaptations in individuals with chronic ankle instability, with the goal of improving outcomes through impairment-based rehabilitation strategies. She also examines gait biomechanics across multiple populations using both traditional laboratory equipment and wearable sensor technologies.

Dr. Koldenhoven Rolfe teaches in the graduate programs in Athletic Training and Exercise & Sport Science, as well as the undergraduate Pre-Rehabilitation Sciences program. She actively contributes to the field through peer-reviewed publications and presentations at national and international conferences.
