Nathan has recently graduated Physiotherapy from Otago University. Born and bred locally in Christchurch, he has been involved in Athletics and Cross Country running since the age of 5, later representing NZ for Cross Country. Given his passion for running, it was an easy decision to pursue a career as a physiotherapist - satisfying his interest in human biomechanics, and desire to help others achieve their personal goals to the best of their ability. His other interests include hiking, camping, and spending time with family and friends. Nathan is excited to start his working life with Leeston Physiotherapy.
