I graduated with a Master of Science in Physical Therapy in 2011 and have worked as a musculoskeletal physiotherapist for over 10 years. Since 2015, I have worked closely with orthopaedic knee surgeons and developed a strong interest in knee injuries. I have extensive experience treating people with an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. In 2022, I completed my PhD in Rehabilitation Sciences with my thesis focusing on the quality of life of young athletes with a knee injury. Ironically, I ruptured my ACL at the start of my PhD, so I am well-versed in ACL injuries as a physiotherapist, researcher, and patient.
