I graduated from the University of Victoria with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology in 2018. I then proceeded to complete a Masters of Physiotherapy from the University of British Columbia in 2020. My experiences include working with patients in both hospital and private clinic settings as well as research regarding falls prevention. I believe in an evidence-based active treatment approach that combines education, exercise, manual therapy and IMS. I work to build self-efficacy in clients so they can feel confident and empowered throughout their recovery.
Growing up in the Lower Mainland, I participated in various sports such as soccer and swimming. Shortly after finishing high school, I relocated to Vancouver Island and have been happy to call the Island home ever since. Working seasonally as a sous-chef in Tofino for over a decade, I developed a deep appreciation for surfing and the seemingly boundless outdoor recreational opportunities the Westcoast has to offer.
Having dealt with several sports-related injuries, I became interested in human kinetics, injury prevention and rehabilitation. The patient-centred care I received during my own experience with physiotherapy was invaluable in helping me quickly return to my active lifestyle and am thrilled to be in a position where I can similarly assist others.
