My Background
I’m a North Shore native; a former high performance athlete-turned outdoors enthusiast; and a Naturopathic Physician. I’m passionate about empowering women in their healthcare so that they can take on their career, family and life goals feeling supported, energized and vibrant.
Growing up as an athlete in North Vancouver, I've always been fascinated by the human body. I never cease to be amazed with the ability of the body to grow, change, build up and break down. Coming from a family of medical professionals, I gravitated towards the healthcare field and studied Exercise Science at Capilano College and then Physical Health and Education at the University of Toronto. As a varsity athlete for both my college and university varsity volleyball teams, I experienced the transformation that occurs with dedicated high performance training. Graduating with honours from a top Canadian university also humbled me how stress, and the way in which one’s thoughts and intentions can impact your physical mental and spiritual health. I explored various healthcare careers before I settled on a career in naturopathic medicine.
