I received my four-year post-graduate Doctor of Naturopathy degree from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM). Here I completed a twelve-month clinical internship at the Robert Schad Naturopathic Clinic, Brampton Naturopathic Teaching Clinic, and Sherbourne Health Naturopathic Clinic. Prior to this, I graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with a Bachelors degree in Kinesiology and Physical Education, and a minor in Psychology. Throughout my academic and personal health journey, my passion for wellness further developed through working as a fitness instructor, facilitating research, and volunteering at several clinics and related organizations.

I strive to provide inclusive and evidence-informed care through a holistic approach, empowering my patients to take control of their health! I approach each patient individually, addressing the underlying cause of symptoms to put together every piece of the puzzle. With a focus on the mind-body connection and education, I seek to deliver the highest quality care for my patients, leaving them feeling heard, supported, and on their way to being the best version of themselves!

My special interests include hormonal health, mental health, brain health/neurocognitive concerns; and I’m certified in cosmetic acupuncture.

My happy place is by the water so it’s no surprise that when I’m not seeing patients, I love being outdoors (hiking, swimming, snowshoeing, kayaking - you name it!) and travelling. I’m also a huge foodie and I love to try new recipes, so feel free to share your favourite recipes with me!

I’m registered and board-certified with the College of Naturopaths of Ontario (CONO), and a professional member of the Ontario and Canadian Associations of Naturopathic Doctors (OAND, CAND).
