Certified Athletic Therapist specializing in injury prevention and management.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Certified Athletic Therapist with a strong background in injury prevention and management, honed through extensive experience in various athletic settings. My journey began with a Bachelor of Health Sciences in Athletic Therapy, where I developed a solid foundation in musculoskeletal assessment and treatment. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with elite athletes across multiple sports, including baseball, hockey, and lacrosse, providing on-field emergency coverage and rehabilitation services.
In my current role at Briotix Health, I focus on educating and training individuals on injury and illness prevention while maintaining accurate documentation. My previous experiences as the Head Athletic Therapist for the Ottawa Titans and Lead Athletic Therapist for the Junior National Baseball Team have equipped me with the skills to manage complex injury cases and coordinate care effectively. I am passionate about creating safe environments for athletes and ensuring their well-being through comprehensive care and support.
