My Story

I began my career as a personal trainer in 2018, became a remedial massage therapist in 2019, and have been training and competing in Olympic weightlifting since 2019. During this time, I was also studying at university and graduated in 2024 with a Bachelor of Clinical Exercise Physiology.

I don’t believe qualifications alone make a great clinician. What matters is how theory is translated into meaningful, long-term change. While my studies have been valuable, my experience training, competing, and working hands-on with clients has shaped my approach even more. I won’t ask a client to do something I wouldn’t do myself.

My work has always leaned toward the practical: helping people move, lift, and live better, while grounding every decision in strong clinical reasoning.

My philosophy is simple: rehabilitation should not end when pain disappears.

Too often, people complete a short block of physiotherapy, feel “fixed,” and then stop training altogether. The result is deconditioning, fear of movement, and recurring injury.

Strength training is the missing link.

When pain settles and the question becomes “What now?”, my answer is to build capacity. That may mean learning a clean, developing a stronger squat, or finding a training style that challenges and excites you. Weightlifting isn’t just a sport it’s a system for resilience.

By leaving rehabilitation stronger than before injury, you build a body that is capable, durable, and prepared for the demands of work, sport, travel, and everyday life.
