Alyssa Marino

Alyssa graduated from the University of Guelph in 2023 with an Honours Bachelor of Science degree in Human Kinetics. From a young age she was fascinated by the human body and learning about how we move. Through her own experience with receiving physiotherapy treatment throughout her life, she developed a deep admiration for the profession and its ability to impact the lives of those who are challenged with limitations within their bodies. Now, as a physical therapy student, she is dedicated to becoming a part of this impact on the front lines and helping people in the process of restoring their function and achieving their goals.
