Summary

Kia ora!
I am proud to be born and raised in Te Tai Tokerau, Whangārei. I am a new graduate physiotherapist with six months of experience working in private practice, after completing my Bachelor of Health Science in Physiotherapy at AUT.

Alongside my physiotherapy journey, I have previously worked in multiple hospitality roles, where I developed strong skills in communication, problem-solving, and teamwork - qualities that continue to shape my practice as a clinician.

With a keen interest in musculoskeletal physiotherapy, influenced by my sporting background and early experiences, I am committed to delivering person-centered care, and supporting people to achieve their goals. I am excited to continue growing as a clinician, and I look forward to the opportunities ahead as I further develop my skills and knowledge in practice.
