Course Coordinator & Lecturer, Physiotherapy, Australian Catholic University

I am a Lecturer and Course Coordinator in the undergraduate physiotherapy program at ACU, North Sydney.

I am also a Titled Sports and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist with extensive experience treating elite athletes. I have worked and travelled internationally with multiple sports.

I am currently completing a PhD in Medicine and Public Health at The University of Newcastle, Australia. My PhD focus is evaluating the identification of concussion in Women’s National Rugby League. I have a research interest in injury risk reduction, particularly in female contact and collision sports.
