Before I became a naturopathic doctor, I earned my Bachelor of Science from UBC, worked as a tree planter in Northern BC, spent years in the customer service industry, and gave birth to my first child. I was drawn to the holistic approach to health and treatment. The focus is on optimal health, not just disease treatment. While studying at the Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine, my family grew, and now I have the privilege of raising four wonderful kids. Managing family life and clinical practice has shaped me into a more empathetic and grounded practitioner, driven by a desire to support my community in a meaningful way.
