After having grown up with a sibling with a spinal cord injury, supporting individuals who live with neurological conditions has been a life-long passion of mine. This led me to work as a spinal cord rehabilitation trainer in Regina, Saskatchewan where I led activity-based exercise programs for individuals with spinal cord injuries before pursuing a Master of Science in Physiotherapy (2017). 

I completed several placements in the UK while completing my physiotherapy degree in Glasgow, Scotland. Most notably, I worked at The Wellington Hospital Rehabilitation Centre where I had the opportunity to utilize hydrotherapy, body weight support treadmills, exoskeletons, and exercise for neurological physiotherapy. 

During my career as a neuro physiotherapist, I completed advanced courses in the Bobath Concept. This has provided me with a framework and guides my assessment and treatment of individuals with spinal cord injury, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and other neurological conditions. I have also completed courses in functional neurological stimulation in neuro rehab and the role of physiotherapy in functional movement disorders. 

Another part of neuro physio that I enjoy is making it fun and incorporating activities that my clients love into their physiotherapy sessions. 

When I am not at the clinic, you can find me playing volleyball, coaching with the Halton Hurricanes Volleyball Club, planning my next tattoo, or spending time with my family.
