Callum pursued a BA in Kinesiology and Physical Education at Laurier University (2013-2017). While at Laurier, Callum was a men’s varsity soccer team member and a frequent volunteer in the Athletic Therapy clinic, working with various varsity athletes in their rehab. In his fourth year, Callum completed a thesis on obstacle avoidance strategies during various locomotion forms under Dr. Cinelli’s supervision.
Callum has developed his skillset as an exercise practitioner by attaining his Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) certificate from the National Strength and Conditioning Association, completing Totum’s personal trainer mentorship program, and subsequently coaching exercises in individual, group, and team settings for the past 6 years. Callum has experience with pediatric clientele from working in Totum’s Youth Academy and becoming the head coach of a local rep soccer team for three consecutive years.
Callum returned to school in 2021, attending Queen’s University for an MSc in Physical Therapy. A three-month international clinical placement at Amar Seva Sangam in the south of India stands out as the most unique and fulfilling therapeutic experience during his studies.
Now working as a Physical Therapist Resident, Callum combines his in-depth knowledge and understanding of movement with manual techniques to achieve sustainable improvements with his patients. Callum is passionate about educating those he works with and encourages his patients to understand ‘the why’ behind the clinical decisions that are made.
