About

I am an undergraduate student studying Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and biomedical sciences with a keen interest in sports injury and rehabilitation. As an athlete, I understand the frustrations of going through injury and am glad to have had a strong team of learned individuals guide me through my injuries and help me return to sport. I aspire to be that for a future generation of athletes and to teach the general population how to stay active, but pain-free.
