Also hailing from a rural background, I grew up in Cowra in NSW, developing a keen interest in Physiotherapy in my senior schooling after meeting some cool visiting Physio students! I was accepted into the prestigious Charles Sturt University in Albury, completing my formal university studies at the end of 2014, quickly firing up my Physiotherapy career in the greenest and wettest part of the state in Hamilton! Duncan and I moved to Bendigo in 2016, to be closer to our families and to enjoy the exciting lifestyle, still in touch with a country background that Bendigo provides.
