What do you think are the best skills that you bring to your job?

I enjoy taking a collaborative approach, working alongside clients to understand their goals and tailor treatment to their needs.

I believe education and understanding of the body is such an important part of recovering from an injury. I enjoy simplifying the rehabilitation process to help patients understand their injuries and feel confident in their recovery, empowering them to return to the activities they enjoy.

Your most-outstanding achievement:
Climbing Kala Patthar and completing the Everest Base Camp and Gokyo Lakes trek in Nepal.

What are you happiest doing when you’re not working?
An ideal day off for me includes a relaxed morning with a good book, spending time outdoors, trying out a new restaurant, and watching the Melbourne Demons get a win!

What would be your personal motto?
“If it is to be, it is up to me”
