Evidence-based physiotherapy with a focus on restoring movement, alleviating pain, and empowering patients to lead fuller lives.
"The body has an innate capacity to heal, my role is to guide, support, and amplify that process."
Dedicated to the art of recovery
I graduated from the Bond University, Australia in Doctor of Physical Therapy program in 2026 with a strong academic record and over 1,400 hours of supervised clinical practice across seven diverse placement environments.
My approach integrates the latest evidence in pain science, biomechanics, and exercise physiology with genuine attentiveness to each patient's unique context, goals, and values. I believe effective physiotherapy listens as carefully as it treats.
Having trained across orthopaedics, neurology, paediatrics, and sports medicine, I bring a breadth of clinical understanding to every assessment, enabling me to see the whole person, not only the presenting complaint.
Outside the clinic, I remain active as a trail runner and table tennis player, grounding my professional perspective in a lived understanding of the demands, and rewards, of physical activity.
Clinical specialities
A broad clinical education combined with focused interest in musculoskeletal rehabilitation, neurological recovery, and preventative care.
Orthopaedic & Sports Rehabilitation
Post-surgical and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, from ACL reconstruction to lower back pain. Evidence-based progressive loading and return-to-sport planning.
Neurological Recovery
Applying neuroplasticity principles in functional rehabilitation for stroke, TBI, spinal cord conditions, and MS. Gait retraining, balance work, and upper limb recovery.
Chronic Pain Management
Grounded in contemporary pain science, helping patients reframe their relationship with pain through education, graded exposure, and lifestyle integration.
Paediatric Physiotherapy
Developmental support and functional rehabilitation for children with congenital, acquired, and neurodevelopmental conditions, in close collaboration with families.
Preventative & Postural Care
Movement screening, ergonomic assessment, and corrective exercise programming, identifying dysfunction before it becomes injury and building long-term resilience.
Exercise Prescription
Individualised therapeutic programs balancing progressive overload with recovery, tailored to each patient's goals, from acute rehabilitation to performance conditioning.
Clinical placements
Seven clinical placements across multiple locations, spanning the full spectrum of physiotherapy practice from acute inpatient care to high-performance private practice.
Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy
Lifemark.
Orthopaedic Physiotherapy
Stanford Cardinal football team, focusing on sports injury assessment, rehabilitation, and performance optimization. Experience divided between the Sports Medicine Clinic and the Athletic Training Room in a multidisciplinary, high-performance environment.
Intensive Care Unit
Intensive Care Unit, focusing on respiratory care and physiotherapy management of critically ill patients. Experience included manual hyperinflation, suctioning, and cardiorespiratory assessment. Independently managed 5–6 ICU patients by the end of placement under clinical supervision.
Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapy
Cardiorespiratory Ward, focusing on cardiovascular and respiratory assessment and treatment. Experience included airway clearance techniques (ACBT, PEP, OPEP), patient mobilization, and exercise-based rehabilitation. Involved in patient prioritization, discharge planning, and participation in multidisciplinary team meetings to support coordinated patient care.
