Hobbies & interests
I am married with two sons at University. I have played most sports but more recently been playing competitive snooker and 8 ball. Creatively I have dabbled in painting and stone and wood sculptures.
Favourite parts of the job
I love being a Physio because every 30 min I meet someone new with a chance to unravel together a unique human puzzle. I also enjoy Teaching and Sharing my experiences with both clients and colleagues.
