My pathway into physiotherapy was a little different from most. I spent the majority of my earlier career working in leisure, in roles including swimming instructor, trampoline coach, water sports instructor, and duty manager, before moving into marketing and communications for the best part of a decade. I also had a short stint as a divemaster and ran a mental health coaching business.
In my teens, I’d wanted to become a physiotherapist but never followed that path. I decided in my late 30s that now was the time to do it. After retraining for four years, I qualified with a First-Class Honours degree from the University of Worcester, working in private practice ever since.
My experience in life, and my general ethos, means I want to understand not just the issue you’re dealing with, but how you got there, so we can stop it happening again.
My background in communications means I aim to speak in language that’s clear and concise, so we can build a plan that we both understand and both believe in.
Outside the clinic, I have a little boy who takes up a fair amount of my time. I also have a keen interest in anything on the water (kayak, canoe, paddle boarding), enjoy weight training where I can, and like to run, cycle, and hike (or slowly run) up the Malvern’s.
