What is something totally random that people won’t know about you?
I did not learn how to ride a bike until I was 23 years old. Our family was never the outdoorsy type and my parents just never saw the need for me to learn. Luckily I have awesome, and very patient friends.
When did you decide you wanted to be a physio?
Growing up as a dancer I’ve always had an interest in how the body moves. I also grew up in a family that values health and wellness. During my first year at university, I took an anatomy course and fell in love. I thought to myself, “how do I combine my values around health and well-being, my passion for dance, and my newfound love for anatomy all into one?” and physiotherapy was the answer.
Which sports are you into?
Dance! I’ve trained in ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary, modern, hip hop, and acrobatics. I also recently started playing tennis but I’m just happy if I can get the ball over the net.
Where did you grow up?
Prince Rupert BC, the rainiest city in Canada.
What is your favourite orthopaedic condition to treat?
Hips, ankles and feet, all of which I, myself, have had problems with in the past.
What makes you happiest?
I am happiest in the dance studio. But may also be caught smiling when eating delicious food with family and friends.
