I am an Advanced MSK Practitioner with over 10 years of experience, specialising in spinal, tendon, and shoulder conditions. I take a holistic, research-informed approach, focusing on identifying underlying causes of injuries and promoting long-term recovery and wellness. My career began in Australia, where I worked in private practice and with elite sports teams, including Handball Australia, the Sunshine Coast Netball Team, rowing clubs, and the Weightlifting Training Centre at the Commonwealth Games. As a former athlete participating in basketball, netball, and rowing, I developed a deep understanding of sports rehabilitation—particularly after sustaining two ACL ruptures. This personal experience sparked my passion for non-surgical ACL management and complex injury rehabilitation. I hold a Master’s in Sports and Exercise Physiotherapy from the University of Queensland, where my research on Patella Tendinopathy and Youth Specialisation in Sports strengthened my evidence informed approach. As Head of Rehabilitation at Pure Sports Medicine, I apply this expertise to complex case management, mentoring clinicians, and driving high-quality patient outcomes through both manual therapy, communication and exercise based rehabilitation. Now based in the UK, I bring a global perspective, collaborating with multi-disciplinary teams—just as I have with elite athletes—to achieve the best outcomes.
