BBiomedSc (Hons), La Trobe University

Will holds a Bachelor of Biomedical Science from La Trobe University, graduating with First Class Honours, and was later shortlisted and interviewed by the Melbourne Medical School. His grounding is in evidence, not marketing copy.

His training covers anatomy, physiology and biomechanics, the ground that explains why a strapping tape does what it does. For Straptor he writes the pieces that need that extra layer: how kinesiology tape interacts with skin and muscle, why rigid tape resists the loads it does, and what actually separates a hypoallergenic adhesive from a standard one.

He has also spent several years in business and operational roles alongside product and technical teams, so he can turn the biomechanics into plain guidance that athletes, club trainers and allied health practitioners can all use.

His writing for Straptor focuses on tape construction, kinesiology, biomechanical taping technique, and the science behind injury prevention and recovery.
