Forbes High School Dux Isabella Brown has taken the first steps on her 2025 pathway.
Isabella's excellent HSC results and ATAR have secured her place to study physiotherapy through Charles Sturt University, but she'll be doing most of the study online as she's just started work at Rise Physiotherapy Group as an allied health assistant as well.
Work experience at the local business led Isabella to discover her passion for physiotherapy, which she's looking forward to pursuing.
"I just love the variety of it," she said.
"Being with people, talking to people, building relationships and helping them - it's really my passion."
