We welcomed Sophie as a part of our therapy team in 2022. Sophie’s interest in hand therapy was sparked when she required hand therapy herself, fracturing her wrist in high school. Since then, becoming a hand therapist has been her career goal. Sophie loves the complexities of hand and upper limb anatomy and enjoys the creative aspect of splint making. After graduating from the University of Queensland as an occupational therapist in 2021, Sophie made the move to Tassie. She is available for hand, wrist and arm injuries as well as scar management.
