Leading by Example
After high school, I was unsure of what career path I wanted to take. I was always interested in health care and decided that science would be a good place to start. I pursued a degree in Biology and Psychology with a focus in pharmacology at the University of Alberta.
Through the course of my undergraduate degree, a family member spoke of their experiences with a chiropractor and how their health and overall well-being had dramatically improved. Intrigued by their success, I researched and fell in love with the ideologies and techniques of Chiropractic. In 2012, I enrolled in the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto and graduated in 2016.

Love for Mamas and Mamas-to-Be
During my time at CMCC, I developed an interest in pre and postnatal chiropractic care. I am formally trained in Webster Technique, which specializes in management of the pregnancy related pelvic and low back pain.
During my own pregnancy, I found relief with Chiropractic, and it helped me be able to work into the final weeks before baby. I feel I can use my own pregnancy and birth journey in conjunction with the latest literature to provide the best care to new and expecting moms.
Dry Needling and Acupuncture
I recently completed the Acupuncture Canada Level 1 certification, which allows me to practice both medical acupuncture and dry needling. Patients oftene xperience immediate relief from muscular pain, increased range of motion, and long-term improvements in function. In my practice thus far, I’ve seen success with back pain,neck tension, sports injuries, or even headaches, dry needling/medical acupuncture works interactively with chiropractic adjustments to accelerate healing and provide lasting results.
Outside of the Practice
I live with my husband Jamie, son Jakob, and our dog Dougie in the Edmonton area. Together, we enjoy traveling, watching Jeopardy!, and spending time with our friends and family.
