Sam earned his Bachelor of Health Science followed by a Master's in Physiotherapy in 2021, both from the University of Sydney. He brings extensive experience from working with sports teams such as the UTS Bats AFL and the Dunbar Rovers football club, as well as from his time in private practice. Sam began his career focusing on older populations, particularly in strength and conditioning before joint replacement surgery and in facilitating high-function recovery post-surgery.
Sam was drawn to physiotherapy by witnessing its positive impacts firsthand, both on his own injuries and those of his family. As a clinician, he finds great satisfaction in helping people understand their bodies better and achieve pain-free living.
An avid sports enthusiast, Sam has participated in a variety of team and individual sports. His initial interests were in rugby and Muay Thai, which later expanded to include padel, Brazilian jiu jitsu, and surfing. He also has a passion for travel, especially to non-English speaking countries.
In his free time, Sam enjoys being outdoors, whether at the beach, hiking, or playing sports. However, he also values a lazy day once a week to relax.
