Summary

Graduate Accredited Exercise Physiologist with a background in learning support for children with disabilities. Throughout 6 years of working with children, I built strong relationships with individual students to help them achieve their goals and motivate them based on their interests. Using these interpersonal and problem-solving skills throughout placement, I have effectively communicated with clients and healthcare professionals to deliver individualized rehabilitation plans.

I am an organized and dependable candidate able to manage multiple priorities with a positive attitude and excellent time management skills. I am looking to seek and maintain a full-time position within a multidisciplinary team focused on rehabilitation and chronic disease management. I am passionate about helping people achieve their health and fitness goals to become confident and stronger physically and mentally.
