What I'm looking for

I’m looking to join a team where I can deliver evidence-based physiotherapy and functional fitness, educate clients on injury prevention and posture, and help people reach safe, effective, goal-driven recovery and performance.

I’m a dynamic, results-driven fitness and rehabilitation professional with a diverse background as a Certified Personal Trainer, Functional Fitness Training specialist, and Licensed Physiotherapist. I’m passionate about promoting holistic health and functional movements, with over 10 years of experience designing personalized training programs and delivering evidence-based physiotherapy interventions.

My work centers on safe, effective, goal-oriented outcomes: I assess and treat clients with musculoskeletal, neurological, and sports-related injuries, and I educate clients on injury prevention, posture correction, and wellness strategies. I’m also skilled in leading high-energy group sessions while motivating clients of all fitness levels.

Across roles, I’ve built strong client relationships through individualized strength training, functional fitness, and corrective exercises—supporting weight loss, muscle gain, and post-rehab progress. I’ve also contributed to clinical care by conducting patient assessments, implementing basic treatment protocols, participating in case conferences, and documenting patient records professionally.

I thrive collaborating within multidisciplinary teams to optimize client recovery, performance, and overall wellbeing. With my training in human anatomy, biomechanics, rehabilitation sciences, neurological and musculoskeletal physiotherapy, plus CPR and First Aid, I bring both technical confidence and practical readiness to every program I build.
