I graduated from Cumberland College of Health Sciences in 1986 and began my career working across both the public and private health systems in Sydney. In 1995, I established Leeton Physiotherapy Centre in the Riverina region of NSW, where I grew the practice to include clinics in two neighbouring towns. I also provided outreach services to local aged care facilities and businesses, and supported the next generation of physiotherapists by offering clinical placements to students from several universities.
With almost 40 years of clinical experience, I have developed expertise in manual therapy, sports physiotherapy, workplace health and safety, orthopaedics, and hand therapy. I have worked closely with local and representative rugby union teams and was proud to be part of the physiotherapy team at the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.
Outside of work, I enjoy staying active through running, strength training, and beach walks since relocating to the coast. I also love gardening, reading, and spending time with family and friends—especially when it involves good food and wine.
