Growing up in Scarborough, I explored every sport I could get my hands on—from running track in elementary school to swimming competitively for my high school varsity team. My passion for movement and performance led me to the Kinesiology program at York University. During my time at York, I joined the York Dragon Boat team and quickly fell in love with the sport. But as the years went on, dragon boat took a toll on my body. Shoulder injuries, back pain, and the pause brought on by COVID pushed me to step away for a while, though my passion for sport never faded.

My journey continued into the Athletic Therapy Program at York. There, I learned firsthand how to provide emergency sideline medical care, treat sports injuries for USport, OUA, and OCAA athletes, and support their strength and conditioning sessions. Throughout the program, I witnessed the resilience and dedication of athletes—tough practices, hard‐earned wins, heartbreaking losses, and every kind of injury imaginable. Despite all the adversity, they pushed forward with discipline and mental toughness. Their perseverance inspired me deeply, giving me new insight into managing my own injuries and empowering others throughout their rehab process.

I went on to work with multiple teams across a variety of sports, from OUA women’s basketball to 9‐man volleyball. I’ve always aimed to be as knowledgeable and adaptable as possible, no matter the sport or setting.

My experience across different sports has given me a strong understanding of a wide range of injuries and what athletes need to perform at a high level. My goal is not only to help you return to daily living, but to support you in building the tools, confidence, and strength needed to excel in your goals.
