Physiotherapy is a family affair for me, my mother was a Registered Physiotherapist for 38 years and my sister is currently a practicing Physiotherapist in Ottawa. Some say it was an inevitable career choice for me
But it wasn’t until attending Queen’s University and competing on their Varsity Volleyball team, that a curiosity in movement, capacity development and injury prevention was sparked. At Queens I became innately focused on improving my own performance. It was this focus that led me to competing professionally in the sport of beach volleyball and ultimately towards a career in Physiotherapy.
As a Physiotherapist I strive to be a clinician who helps others be the best version of themselves. A clinician who explores the limits of their own possibilities. And clinician who make a difference in those who are looking to expand their own potential in order to achieve what they previously thought impossible.
In my spare time you can find me enjoying the outdoors with my wife and daughter, exploring in my home gym, or lounging with my two cats George Harrison and Penny Lane
