From a young age, Andrew was fascinated by how the body moves and recovers.  In as early as middle school, Andrew was competing in swimming at the national level and continued to do so through varsity at University of Western Ontario.  Competing at that level for over 10 years lent itself to countless injuries, where he developed a strong idea of how powerful physical therapy can be for recovery, performance, and movement health.  In adulthood, Andrew continues to train as a rock climber and hybrid athlete.  Through his athletic career, he learned to appreciate the importance of biomechanics, motor learning, and physical adaptation to drive success.  Despite his own experiences working through muscular injuries, this was not the only influence towards him pursuing Physiotherapy. Through his childhood, he was also exposed to serious injuries of his sisters - and was inspired by watching the rehabilitation process of his loved ones to return to health.  Seeing the impact of movement therapy shaped his future, leading him to pursue his fascination in his studies. 

With a fervent passion to help others, Andrew pursued his degree in Medical Sciences at the University of Western Ontario, deeply exploring human physiology, anatomy, biomechanics, and health.  During this time, he balanced his studies, varsity swimming, and had the opportunity to volunteer with many physiotherapists and health professionals who continued to inspire him.  He went on to pursue his Master’s of Physical Therapy at Queens University, learning from industry-leading mentors and teachers, and beginning his practice.  Though his formal education has ended, Andrew’s desire to provide exceptional care doesn’t end, as he continues to take courses to stay current with the evolving research and enhance his own expertise. 

Andrew’s goal in the rehab world is to help others understand how resilient and adaptive the human body is, and become the most athletic version of themselves. He has a deep understanding of the complexity of the human body, and integrates evidence-based care, collaboration with clients, and treatment planning, to achieve their individual goals through any point of their unique journey.  Through hands-on care, education, and tailored exercise programming, he aims to help empower you to achieve the active lifestyle you want, and build capacity in your body to sustain your long-term health.
