Born and raised in Bulgaria, I have always had a special affection for promoting health and exercising.

I completed an undergraduate physiotherapy program at the National Sports Academy in Sofia back in 2013. Being an adult with a real job was never going to be that straightforward so I went to Alaska and worked there for a while (not as physio of course, I was a prep-cook), traveled the States and then spent half an year in South America. Finally, in late 2014 I have arrived in London and loved it so much so I have settled down. Ever since, I have worked in a few private clinics, mostly with children with cerebral palsy and neurodevelopmental delay. Currently, I am employed as Research Paediatric Physiotherapist at UCL and Great Ormond Street Hospital. My main interests at the moment are neuromuscular disorders and neurorehabilitation. I still love to travel a lot and learn from everything and everyone..<br> | Born and raised in Bulgaria, I have always had a special affection for promoting health and exercising.

About Me[edit | edit source]
Born and raised in Bulgaria, I have always had a special affection for promoting health and exercising. After 10 years of being a professional long-distance runner, I have decided to become a physiotherapist. I completed an undergraduate physiotherapy program at the National Sports Academy in Sofia back in 2013. Being an adult with a real job was never going to be that straightforward so I went to Alaska and worked there for a while (not as physio of course, I was a prep-cook), traveled the States and then spent half an year in South America. Finally, in late 2014 I have arrived in London and loved it so much so I have settled down. Ever since, I have worked in a few private clinics, mostly with children with cerebral palsy and neurodevelopmental delay. Currently, I am employed as Research Paediatric Physiotherapist at UCL and Great Ormond Street Hospital. My main interests at the moment are neuromuscular disorders and neurorehabilitation. I still love to travel a lot and learn from everything and everyone..
