Specializations Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Physiotherapy (FCAMPT) Acupuncture Dry Needling Certified Running Analysis Training (The Running Clinic) Concussion Management Training (R2P Concussion Management) Looking back, it’s fair to say my passion for movement started in my own backyard trying to keep up with my older brothers as a kid. As I got older, this passion caught fire through my love of the Olympic Games and my own personal experiences figure skating, playing soccer and volleyball, or whatever other sports my friends were playing at the time. Choosing to study Kinesiology at McMaster University for my undergrad was a natural extension of my interest in human movement, and it was over these 4 years that it really grew into a passion. I studied Physiotherapy at the University of Toronto and I’ve been lucky enough to live and work in North Vancouver, BC for the past 3 years where I discovered the joy of trail running, camping, hiking and skiing. I’ve always looked back on my time as a student at McMaster fondly and am very happy to be back in the Hamilton community to apply what I’ve learned over the years to help people in both staying active or becoming active for the very first time. The human body never ceases to amaze me and I love getting to share my knowledge with my patients through education, hands-on therapy and individualized exercise prescription. Outside of Function 101, you can find me spending time with my large extended family, playing outside with my husband Ryan and our dog Daisy, or listening to a great album while enjoying some delicious food.
