What do you think are the best skills that you bring to your job?
I take great care and pride in listening to my clients and ensuring they feel heard and supported to achieve their goals and provide the best quality of care.
Favourite Conditions to Treat:
Back and knee injuries.
Having experienced back injuries myself, I have been on my own rehabilitation journey with many highs and lows, and therefore have insight into the patient experience. Through this, I have gained further knowledge and understanding on best management for these conditions, as well as the importance in tailoring treatment to each individual.
What are you happiest doing when you’re not working?
Being outdoors – skiing, mountain biking, ocean swimming and surfing with friends and meeting new people.
