I am enrolled in a Masters Degree of physiotherapy at Victoria University. I chose this degree because I have always known that I want to help people in some sort of capacity. I love interacting with others and believe that physiotherapy offers a unique opportunity to create a positive impact on an individuals life. The opportunity to assist patients, whether they are recovering from injury, managing chronic pain or improving their mobility, continuously motivates me to learn and grow in this field of work.

I am particularly interested in sports physiotherapy as it directly connects my athletic experience with my career aspirations. I want to help others return to the activities they love most and to perform at their best, just as other physiotherapists have done for me in my athletic career.

As an elite athlete I have experienced firsthand the importance of physiotherapy in injury prevention and performance enhancement, and have gained a deeper appreciation for physiotherapists in supporting individuals health and performance goals. I believe my experience as an athlete allows me to relate to patients on a more personal level and assists me in understanding the mental and physical challenges they may be facing in their own sporting careers.
