Growing up rurally in the Wairarapa, I have always had a passion for an active and healthy lifestyle, which is what led me to my first degree, Bachelor of Applied Science majoring in Sport & Exercise Nutrition at Otago University, graduating in 2019. However, I realised my true passion was in rehabilitation which drew me to studying Physiotherapy, graduating in 2023. I enjoy physiotherapy as it allows me to work with people from all backgrounds and provide an individualised holistic approach to a patients rehab journey. In my spare time you will find me in the outdoors whether it is in the hills, beaches, or playing sport. View details »
