Subjects Studied:
Higher - English, Maths, Physics, Biology, Modern Studies, German
Career:
I studied BSc (Hons) Physiotherapy at Glasgow Caledonian University 2000 - 2004. I have lived and worked in Oxford since then. Although Physiotherapy is a vocational degree, it can be taken in so many different directions. I have specialised in musculoskeletal physiotherapy and hand therapy, and have gained qualifications in acupuncture and Pilates. Life at the moment is pretty exciting as I'm currently studying for an MSc in Advanced Clinical Practice at Oxford Brookes University. Again, this may lead to untold and developing career paths in the future, which may take me outside of a traditional physiotherapy role.
