And just for fun……

If you were a vegetable, what would you be and why? Garlic- because it makes everything more delicious & yes Google says it’s a vegetable.

Candice has over a decade of experience working as an occupational therapist in rehabilitation, community, and hospital settings.

She graduated in 2009 from the University of Cape Town and has worked all over South Africa and Australia before settling down on the Gold Coast.

Candice loves working with people in their homes to achieve their goals and help them live a more meaningful life. She believes in the wonders of assistive technology to make everyday tasks that little bit easier!

Unlike many of the GCSMR crew Candice does not have a long list of sporting achievements. As a cardiac patient herself she understands what it’s like to be limited by a medical condition and she is personally motivated to help others manage their day-to-day difficulties as best as possible.

When she’s not trying to help you reach your goals you can find her cooking up a storm or wrangling her 2 small boys
