Summary
After years of study and practice, I am proud to share a milestone in my journey. I recently graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Physical Therapy from October 6 University, where I built a strong academic foundation in anatomy, biomechanics, rehabilitation, and patient care.
During my undergraduate years, I spent three years training in hospitals as an inpatient, where I learned how to work in fast-paced clinical environments and support patients through their recovery. At the same time, I balanced academics with four years of experience working as a Physical Therapy Assistant, which allowed me to gain hands-on practice and strengthen my communication skills with patients and healthcare teams.
Most recently, I’ve been working in the United States as a Physical Therapy Technician at Amber Health Physical Therapy. This role has been a turning point for me—it refined my knowledge of medical terminology, therapeutic exercises, and patient-centered care while deepening my ability to build trust and provide compassionate support to people on their healing journeys.
I am excited to continue growing as a healthcare professional, combining science, empathy, and dedication to help patients achieve better mobility, independence, and quality of life.and I didn’t stop there I am studying to be a certified personal trainer,nutritionist and women health specialist by NASM
