In 2024, I joined the Human Movements PhD program at the University of South Australia, after spending three years as a Physical Therapy clinician in Pakistan. Throughout my clinical practice, I worked in hospital and private settings, dealing in neurological and musculoskeletal rehabilitation for pediatric and adult patients. Driven by a passion for advancing our understanding of chronic pain in disease and disability, I am committed to exploring the potential of immersion therapy as a means of improving the lives of individuals living with chronic pain driven by neurological injuries. As a dedicated researcher, I aim to contribute to the development and implementation of innovative therapeutic interventions that promote recovery and enhance quality of life.
