What motivates you?
I’ve got a special interest in the management of the weekend warrior; those non-professional athletes who achieve greatness every Saturday on the footy field, around the bay or in the ocean. As a parent of young kids, I also love supporting local parents through their pre- and post-natal journey. In both cases, it’s such a privilege to support clients through big life moments!
I’m also really passionate about providing a work environment in which my team can grow by sharing knowledge and clinical experience. These days, much of my time is spent educating and ensuring that The Studio team have access to the latest evidence-based Physiotherapy practices and exercise guidelines for the benefit of our community. Time very well spent!
Outside of The Studio...
You’ll probably find me chasing two little people and a moodle (Billie, Darcy and Wilbur) around the parks of Rozelle and Balmain or sipping coffee at one of our many fabulous cafes.
When the kids go to bed I love nothing more than a glass of bubbles and a cheeseboard with my man Jimmy, dreaming up our next trip to Tuscany (one day!).
Favourite exercise?
Everybody’s favourite…the PLANK!
