About

As Clinic Director, I've spent the past 14 years building a multidisciplinary rehabilitation practice where clinical excellence, genuine relationships and continuous learning go hand in hand. My goal has always been to create an environment where clients receive outstanding care and clinicians are supported to grow, lead and thrive.

I believe exceptional rehabilitation is about far more than treating an injury. It's about listening first, understanding what matters most to each person, and helping them regain confidence, independence and long-term function. Whether someone is recovering from cancer treatment, returning to work after injury or navigating a complex rehabilitation journey, our focus is always on achieving meaningful outcomes that improve quality of life.

Clinically, I have a special interest in occupational rehab, complex rehabilitation, cancer rehabilitation and lymphoedema management. As a qualified Cancer Rehabilitation Physiotherapist and Lymphoedema Therapist, I'm passionate about making expert rehabilitation accessible to everyone, regardless of where they are in their recovery.

Developing people is one of the most rewarding aspects of my role. I enjoy mentoring physiotherapists and support staff, strengthening clinical reasoning, building confidence and helping people become the kind of clinician - and leader - they aspire to be. I believe that when people feel trusted, supported and challenged to grow, they deliver their very best work, and our clients experience the benefits.

Today, my role extends well beyond clinical practice. I work closely with private hospitals, aged care providers, specialists, employers, ACC and insurers to build collaborative rehabilitation pathways that deliver seamless care and better outcomes. Strong partnerships, open communication and shared goals are fundamental to the way we work.

I'm proud of the culture we've created at Active+ Mt Eden - one where collaboration is valued, innovation is encouraged, successes are celebrated and people genuinely enjoy coming to work. By investing in our team, we build stronger rehabilitation services and, ultimately, healthier communities.
