Dan Donnellan

My name is Dan, I am the Operations Manager at Lifespan, as well as a dedicated husband and father at home. I have just completed 12 years as an educator, teaching secondary students HPE, History and Geography. I’ve been part of Lifespan Therapies since 2020, and joined Liz in the clinic since 2024 to assist with daily operations and supporting staff as they continue providing the best therapy

Most of the time if I'm not in the clinic, I will be running around somewhere with my two beautiful girls, Jasmine and Scarlett, on another one of our adventures. We love visiting the Ginger Factory, Sea Life, the beach, and the two zoos that we have on the Sunshine Coast. Exploring new places and new things is important to me, as travelling is something that Liz and I really enjoy.

In my spare time, I love playing/watching basketball and football (soccer), playing video games on my PlayStation, or engaging in my favourite hobby by building, painting and playing - Warhammer 40K, a tabletop war game.

What I love most about my role is working closely with the Lifespan family to ensure that everyone feels supported and valued, working with data, and moving around the clinic getting to spend time with clients and families when I get the chance.
