Chelsea is a Brisbane local and began her career with a degree in Exercise and Movement Science, before moving on to study a Bachelor of Podiatry at the Queensland University of Technology.

She has practiced in a variety of clinics, exposing her to a wide range of interesting and complex patients, through which she has acquired vast knowledge and a unique skill set. Her interest in podiatry began while completing her degree in Exercise Science, where she discovered her love of health and fitness and passion for helping people.

Once encountering podiatrists and witnessing the impact they can have on people’s lives, she knew this was the profession for her.

In 2021, Chelsea completed the training requirements for Endorsement in Scheduled Medicines under the Podiatry Board of Australia. She can now prescribe medications to patients, allowing for a better integrated treatment plan.

Her interests outside of podiatry is a lifestyle that reflects one of health and wellness. Growing up in a family from a sporting background instilled a desire to keep active. During her younger years she represented Queensland for swimming and water polo and now enjoys working out at the gym, running and walking her dog.

She aspires to be the best in every aspect of podiatry, with a special interest in musculoskeletal/sports medicine conditions and ingrown toenail surgery. Paving the pathway towards recovery and symptom free is what she finds deeply rewarding.

Being an avid reader, she has a passion for continually improving herself through expanding her knowledge. Chelsea has achieved this through attending conferences/seminars, listening to webinars on a regular basis, researching articles and watching/listening to online podcasts.
