As a dedicated Austrian Physiotherapist and Sport Scientist, I am driven by a passion for empowering (injured) athletes to (re) achieve peak performance and robustness through innovative rehabilitation, injury prevention, and holistic physical development. With over four years of experience as a Rehabilitation Coach at Grasshopper Club Zürich (CH), I honed my expertise in designing tailored rehab programs that bridge the gap between injury and performance. Today, I am a Physiotherapist for BSC YB and I co-leaded the medical department for Shanghai Shenhua FC’s first team alongside Dr. Rob Chakraverty, overseeing cutting-edge gym and pitch-based training, injury prevention strategies, and rehabilitation protocols for elite athletes.

My approach is rooted in a commitment to progress over perfection—embracing uncertainty and learning from challenges to pioneer forward-thinking solutions. As a speaker for VALD, a global leader in human performance technology, I advocate for integrating science and innovation into sports medicine, sharing insights on optimizing athlete health and performance.

Whether guiding individual athletes or collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, I thrive on responsibility and adaptability, ensuring evolving needs are met with precision and creativity. 

My mission is simple: to elevate performance, nurture resilience, and champion a future where athletes thrive—unhindered by limits.
