About Josh
It all started when...
From a young age Josh has always been extensively involved in sport and shown particular interest in exercise.
Growing up he was involved in a wide range of sports, which motivated him to be involved in the sporting development industry whilst studying at university.
"I still thoroughly enjoy working with athletic population but in my 2nd year of university I found my true passion for working in the clinical setting, when my brother, also an Exercise Physiologist, moved to the Gold Coast and began working with neurological patients. I started to volunteer there each week in my spare time from studying"
Josh completed his student placement at Fighting Fit Physiotherapy.
"I absolutely love connecting with people and getting to know them on a personal level, and this job allows me to do just that!"
Josh interests continue to grow in Veteran’s Health, Sporting Injuries and Mental Health. He is actively associated with Veteran’s and First Responders as well as neurological condition/disorders. He even is a carer for the disabled on weekends!
"The best thing about being a part of the Fighting Fit team is working with such inspiring, selfless, and motivated team members. Everyone at Fighting Fit is passionate about the work they do, and they strive to provide the best treatment and service for their clients, it is truly inspirational the work they do behind the scenes"
